Monica was shot by an unidentified assailant while walking next to a park.

On Tuesday night a [trans woman] was shot dead dead on Avenida 14 de Julio in the El Centro neighborhood of La Ceiba, Atlántida.

The body was recovered by Forensic Medicine personnel, but until now it remains unknown, since it did not carry personal documents. However, residents who knew her said that she called herself “Monica.”

Witnesses claim that he was walking in front of the Manuel Bonilla park when, suddenly, an unknown subject shot him without saying a word.
