They Waited for Him": Shocking Details of Mexican Tourist's Murder in Provenza, Medellin Colombia
They Waited for Him": Shocking Details of Mexican Tourist's Murder in Provenza, Medellin Colombia. New details have emerged about the tragic murder of Mexican tourist Horacio Pérez Ledesma in the Provenza sector of Medellín. Horacio, who had arrived in the city with friends to explore, was ambushed while having lunch at a restaurant. The assailants, seemingly tipped off about his whereabouts, waited for over 20 minutes before striking.
Incident Details:
Victim: Horacio Pérez Ledesma, 54, Mexican entrepreneur.
Location: Calle 8 with Carrera 35, Provenza, El Poblado.
Circumstances: Attacked by gunmen on a motorcycle, sustaining eight gunshot wounds. He succumbed to his injuries during surgery at the Medellín Clinic.
Suspects: Three individuals were arrested, including Venezuelan Anthony Johan Tobar Ponceleon and Colombians Antonio Rafael Herrera Escobar and Jhon Fabio Prada Rico. Authorities ruled out robbery as a motive, suggesting a possible settling of scores.
This incident adds to the growing concern over the safety of foreign tourists in Medellín, with 31 non-migrant foreign deaths reported this year, including two homicides.
Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story.

So 3 arrested arrived shortly from Bogota ,they had criminal records . He fired 8 times . Theft was ruled out. I am not a criminal investigator but sounds like a professional hit by professional sicario.

Agree , by all appearance it sounds like a hit
I witnessed the same numbers manipulation in Panama 2009-12. The guys who cut the grass on the expressway would find an arm here a leg there but not a whole body of the victims. The chief of police in the province told me that those aren't homicides because it's just a limb and not a body and so weren't counted. Morbid manipulation! Keeping the tourist gravy train running at all costs!

@@user-dk3up2nl1mevidently the camera surveillance "worked" as it is supposed to for one Mexican citizen murdered in broad daylight. Why isn't this camera surveillance being utilized in "less spectacular" crimes of doping, drugged and murdered tourists? Is it that Paisa' are fascinated with fireworks, explosions and gunfire, or that Medellin police are less fascinated with the other thirty+ murders committed in less spectacular fashion? Likely, the less spectacular murders...thought to be drug and sex oriented...have family, friends and acquaintances just as anxious for resolution of these crimes.

His group needs to be held in Colombia while the investigation continues. They waited for him at the restaurant, how did they know?
Stayed at The Wake Hotel in Provenza 5 days ago. Great restaurants and hotel policies
If this was some crime from a foreigner against a local like against minors, then the mayor would be quick to have his press conferences like he has in the past but crickets when it's a crime against foreigners
He was not coming to learn about the place. He was involved in things he shouldnt have been so he voted and got it

Interesting to note that DC Rob picked up...there are cameras all over Colombia, everywhere in Medellin...these criminal were tracked and promptly apprehended using camera surveillance. Why is it so difficult to use camera surveillance in less dramatic murders, robberies and molestations of tourists?
More to this story. No one just comes up to you and then boom.
Thank you for your updates Rob.
It's sad but the Mexican is not an ordinary tourist

Thanks again, brother
Your information is impeccable
this was a pro hit. this mexican was no tourist. this shows you the cartels influence in colombia is getting more bold. also looking at this they have cameras all over and u mean to tell me they cant find the people doing the drugging..
Those other ppl he was with should be detained too. Someone he was with had to be in on it.

I understand that the motive is a lot of money owed to Mr. Ledesma in Mexico. . The sicarios were hired in Bogota from Mexico. This was a professional hit job.

Welcome to hoedellin.
Who is blurring their face?
Well if they waited for him then it was a hit for whatever reason especially since only he was hit and in a group. Plus he was invited to a bachelor party, how did they know he was there? Hit, hit, hit. Could have happened anywhere but he was in Medellin and maybe easier there. But it really has nothing to do with being a tourist there unless there were innocent bystanders who were hurt or killed too and that’s not the case here.He was not a normal tourist so we need to keep it in perspective. Same with the Border Agents.
