Yesterday there was a shootout in the City of Knowledge – Panama’s Business, Scientific and Technological Park – and home to United Nations Agencies and the United States Embassy.

It began when delinquents fired on a police roadblock in the Northern Corridor.  After a 30-minute car chase, a little red car followed by police units arrived to the City of Knowledge, exchanging fire, before a private security officer shot out the little red car’s tires.

Four people were arrested and one shot in the left thigh.  Used cocaine straws, security jackets and traces of alcohol were found in the vehicle.
