Lázaro (his real name), the violent and dangerous criminal who terrified an entire region and claimed many victims, was shot dead during a violent confrontation with officers who trapped him less than 100 miles from the country's capital. His victims include an entire family of four members, which prompted the final big chase.

Everybody knew someone like him would never give up peacefully. He never made attempts or any contact to negotiate his surrender.
