Through social networks, the exact moment in which a woman was hit by a taser when she was threatening police officers with a knife was known. The incident occurred in the Opera sector in the center of Medellín .

In the images you can see the woman who has a large knife in her hand and who ignores the call that the uniformed officers make to her, on several occasions, to drop the knife while pointing the electric shock weapon at her .

Faced with the screams of the uniformed officers and even some of the people who were there as observers who asked her to drop the knife, the woman always remained defiant ,to the point of moving the knife in circles while holding it tightly.

Precisely at the moment when he was making a new threat, the police officer shot him . The woman collapsed to the ground and another subject who was close to her tried to use a stick to separate the knife from her body to prevent her from harming herself.

The reactions to the event have not been long in coming and users of X or Twitter have commented saying that: “Let's hope the lady comes to her senses. There is no abuse of authority, but rather a legitimate, valid and proportional exercise of it . Although there will be those who say that their human rights were violated”, “ Thank goodness the police officer was niche ”, “There is confidence again in Medellín”, “ The Petristas are going to come and say that it is racism , that the electric shock will leave you traumatized for life and that the police officer is a paraco” and “Congratulations to this officer, excellent exercise of his powers!”
