On May 1, a shocking event occurred in the city of Guayaramerín, located in the Bolivian Amazon region, north of the department of Beni. An alleged criminal was found inside a private house , apparently trying to commit a robbery. However, what appeared to be a typical home invasion case took a dramatic turn. In defense of his life, the owner activated his firearm , making clear his intention to protect himself. Images captured during the incident clearly show the moments leading up to the shooting in apparent self-defense. This event generated a debate among the population , divided between those who maintain that no one has the right to take life, regardless of the circumstances, and those who argue that the law allows people to act in defense of their lives when they are in danger.
