Remembering Our Dead

Enileidis Quintero Brito

Enileidis was shot by two assailants on a motorcycle while out with friends. She died at the scene.

The attack was recorded by security cameras but no arrests have yet been made.

A new bloodbath occurred in the city of Riohacha (La Guajira), where a trans woman was killed while visiting a public establishment with friends in the district's Commune 10.

The victim was identified as 38-year-old Emileidis López Bolívar, who apparently belonged to the LGBTI community. She was left lying on the floor of the establishment called "Los recuerdos de ella" (Her Memories) after being shot five times in the head and chest.

A police source learned that the gunmen arrived on a black and red motorcycle, and the passenger got off the vehicle, approached the victim, and fired shots. The incident caused fear among those present who were sharing the scene.
