Colombian prosecutor Carlos Hoyos killed in Medellin ambush
Gunmen in three jeeps and a car rammed Hoyos’s Mercedes near Medellin airport and sprayed it with submachine gun fire. The body was found 15 miles southeast of the city as traffickers linked to the Medellin Cartel claimed the act amid a war over extradition to the United States. A Bogota mayoral candidate, Andres Pastrana, was later freed nearby by security forces.
