GUAYAQUIL, ECUADOR – JUNE 9, 2025 In the northern part of Guayaquil, in the Mucho Lote area, a couple was shot and killed while taking their child to school on the morning. The parents were attacked by gunmen on a three-wheeled vehicle directly outside the school, after the doors had closed and other students were already inside. Their bodies were left at the main entrance, covered with sheets, while other parents removed their children from the school.
Police reported that both victims had tattoos covering their entire bodies, with the man’s face completely tattooed. The tattoos included symbols and logos of the gangs Los Tiguerones and Los Chuckys, suggesting that the victims had belonged to or been involved with multiple criminal groups.
