One Dead in Confrontation in Panama

Panama - A confrontation between several individuals from rival groups over old rivalries left one dead and one injured in front of the Brisas Frescas mini-super, located in sector 20 of Las Mañanitas (Panama Este). In images captured on video and shared on social media, three subjects are seen who allegedly went to confront their rivals, throwing stones and bottles at a house where they were. Apparently, after the aggression, one of the occupants of the house took out a firearm and fired at the rioters, shooting two of them. In the video, it is seen that everything happened just as a customer who was walking with two bags and had just left the mini-super was crossing the street and had just managed to crouch down when he heard the shots. It was reported that several individuals were apprehended and although the shooter was not captured on video, there are direct accusations against an adult as the supposed shooter.
