Assault on 20 foreigners in the canyon of the lost - Yesterday, May 21, we went to meet This gem, everything was going very well until we went down to see below and when we went up, they had attacked the vans in which we were going, they took one and they took the battery from the other, two more tourists who had not gone on the walk stayed and They violently took their belongings, they pointed guns at them and unfortunately they handed one of them the tire of the truck they stole. They asked how many other people were downstairs and since they didn't speak they fired bullets towards where we were, but because of the wind we didn't hear, we had We had to walk for 6 hours in the middle of the desert afraid that they would come back and take the rest of our things. The cold was no longer tolerated. We had no water, no food, nothing until a boy had a signal and we could ask for help. We arrived until two o'clock. The morning after we filed our complaint, the place is very nice and we hope they put up surveillance. There were around 20 foreigners, Brazilians, Peruvians, French, Chileans, Mexicans.
