I just saw this as well on CuencaHighlife and then immediately googled it on El Comercio.

I think I would have titled the article "Expat murdered in home invasion".

At the site is titled that... but when we first became aware of it early this morning it was not being reported as a home invasion.... we have put two versions up.. the first when it was reported on an individuals twitter account and from a radio broadcast. As the morning past more information became available as to the number of assailants...... and that it was a home invasion. Thank you. .

If he is pimping his website,  the moderator can delete the link ot it. However, the story is in the Ecuadorian media.

If the death was unreported and not in the public domain, this thread might have been deleted for the reasons mentioned in the complaints a couple of posts up.
However, it is public knowledge and posted on several sites so the name, if googled, throws up a lot of reports to this tragic event.
I won't be removing the thread as it is expat related and there are no privacy issues to consider. Someone else may take a different view.

Exactly why I "interecepted" the thread the moment it came into my inbox with my comment.

A tragedy but crime exists everywhere unfortunately.

A tragedy.

Context is always necessary.  This fate is more likely to occur in the USA than Ecuador...and especially rare in the province of Azuay. If anything, that makes the event more tragic.
