Four armed criminals terrorize a store in Coronel, Chile Four armed individuals burst into the La Esquina del Ahorro store located in the Salvador Allende neighborhood of Coronel, Chile, unleashing a violent robbery. The suspects intimidated the owner and employees at gunpoint, forcing them to lie on the ground while threatening to kill them. They demanded a safe that didn’t even exist. Despite this, the criminals stole cash and various high-value items, including luxury wallets. The total value of the loot is estimated at around 5 million Chilean pesos (approximately $5,200 USD), consisting of roughly 1 million pesos in cash (~$1,040) and 4 million pesos in stolen goods (~$4,160). After the robbery, the four fled in a stolen vehicle, which was later abandoned in the rural area of Calabozo Alto in the Biobío region. Authorities recovered the car and are currently conducting forensic tests for fingerprints and DNA evidence. The search for the suspects remains ongoing.
