Man sliced to death by helicopter that came to rescue him

A man who survived a helicopter crash was sliced to death by the blades of another helicopter when the aircraft arrived to rescue him during a rescue mission last Sunday. The victim's own helicopter crashed in a remote part of the southwestern Cauca District in Colombia and he and another man were stranded in the hillside for seven days after their craft broke down with technical issues.

Though in this case, the cartel went a step further and tattooed on the victim’s foreheads and forearms messages, such as “ Soy Ratero ” or “ I’m a Thief “. The message on the narcomensaje reads: Esto nos pasó por rateros. Por no respetar mujeres, menores, si con esto no entienden putos roba carros, roba motos, cadenas, celulares, conejeros, en general doble putos, lacras, mata menores.

And double goes for killers of minors. Attention: Elite Group anti-rats. I was explained by a Mexi...
