If you have been following the news, you probably know who Óscar Pérez is: alleged rebel against the government of Nicolás Maduro. He rose to public attention when he stole a military helicopter and attacked the seat of the Attorney General last year, throwing grenades. He has also hit and stolen weapons from a military facility. His good looks and the fact that he is an actor, besides of a former member of CICPC (the Forensic and Criminal Investigations Unit), and that everything in Venezuela is suspected a fake until proven real, has made him subject to suspicion. Not even I am sure of whether he is a true rebel or not.
It seems, as I have no internet for unknown reasons, that he gave an interview yesterday night. Today there are videos of him being allegedly wounded in an attack, as it seems that the government found his hideaway. He has uploaded videos on his social media, stating that they are being shot and that he was wounded from the explosion of a grenade.
This is a developing story.
El Junquito (the area where he was hiding) is currently militarized.
#Update 1: It is said that he wants to surrender, but that the government won't let him and continue to shoot at his location
#Update2: it is said that he has been shot dead by security forces.
