The criminals survived the hit of the truck and managed to flee limping
In the Torcoroma neighborhood of Comuna Dos de Barrancabermeja, Santander, a brave driver made a bold decision when confronting two armed assailants while trying to rob a merchant.
The incident was captured by a camera, which recorded the moment the van violently rammed the criminals, surprising everyone present.
According to eyewitnesses, the driver did not hesitate to use his vehicle as a defense tool, managing to knock down the criminals.
Despite this, the assailants managed to escape with a gold chain belonging to the victim. However, when one of the thieves tried to return to escape on the merchant's motorcycle, the brave driver acted again, preventing his escape for the second time.
The situation generated outrage in the community, which was tired of the constant robberies in the area. In an act of repudiation and justice into their own hands, a group of citizens, in the midst of anger, decided to set fire to the vehicle used by the criminals, incinerating it on a public highway.
