Lending
Neighbour Gun Was Fatal
Lending your gun to a friend can
be fatal. That is exactly what
happened to 27 year old Gustavo
Alonos Granadas, who lent his
neigbour in Los Cuadros de
Purral, his gun yesterday
morning, who in turn shot
Granados in the head.
Authorites say that it was
1:30am when Granados received a
knock on the door and hurried to
open it. His neighbour, a 26
year old man identifies as
Morales, known in the area as "Pelón",
asked Granados for his gun,
supposedly to go "earn a
living". Without questioning,
Granados handed his gun to his
neighbour, telling him not to
get into any trouble.
Moments later Granados heard
shots being fired outside of his
home. He went outside to see
what the commotion as about and
to get back his gun. According
to witnesses, he asked Pelón for
his gun, who was agitated and in
a fury, shot Granados. The
bullet impacted the head.
Granados fell on the spot and
paramedics from the Cruz Roja
(Red Cross) could do nothing to
save the man.
Morales was immediately arrested
and is now facing a charge of
murder.
