News Antioch.

An older adult was the victim of a brutal assault by two young people in the municipality of Guatapé.

The elderly man suffering from epilepsy was pushed down a hillside, falling heavily, sustaining some injuries.

Little mattered to these two young people the state of vulnerability in which the older adult was and their act of irresponsibility has been reproached in social networks and by the community in general of this population of Antioquia.
