Andreína died after being attacked from behind. Her killer was arrested.

Andreína García, a 50-year-old woman, was murdered with a sharp, screwdriver-type weapon inside a barbershop in the El Playón de los Comuneros neighborhood in commune 2 of Medellín by a man of approximately 35 years old.

According to the court report, the incident occurred around 1:40 a.m., when an individual entered the establishment and attacked the victim from behind, inserting the screwdriver. Andreina, seriously injured, was rushed by taxi to the Polyclinic, where she underwent surgery, but died due to the severity of her injuries.

The Metropolitan Police acted quickly and managed to capture the alleged aggressor, who was placed at the disposal of the Attorney General's Office. In addition, the authorities continue to investigate the motives for the murder.

[Editor's Note: some sources state that the location of the attack was the victim's home, so she may have been killed in her own salon.}
