An angry mob lynched a soldier inside a village hospital in north Colombia after the drunken military official killed two men and a young girl on accusations locals had stolen his wallet.
The excessive violence occurred early Sunday morning in Montecristo, a town in the wetlands of the Bolivar province.
The military took control over the town after the violent incident that did not just leave four people dead, but another three injured and the local hospital destroyed.
According to the National Army, the violence began when the soldier, stationed nearby the town, lost his wallet in a local bar and drunkenly began harassing locals.
Unhappy with the response, the soldier went to the nearby army base, picked up guns and shot two men and one 12-year-old girl on his return to the bar.
