Una avión tipo Hawker 800, aparentemente cargado con drogas, transitó ilegalmente el espacio aéreo colombiano y luego de la persecución por parte de aviones de la FAC, se accidentó. Se recuperó un cadáver.
BOGOTA, Colombia — May 20, 2015, 7:10 PM ET
A small plane from Venezuela with more than a ton of cocaine on board has crashed into the Caribbean while being pursued by Colombia's air force.
Video released by the air force shows how fighter jets intercepted the Hawker 800 aircraft after it entered Colombia's airspace Wednesday and ordered it to descend.
After the pilot moved to escape, one of the plane's engines apparently failed and the aircraft crashed off the coast of Puerto Colombia.
Colombia's coast guard says the body of the pilot, whose nationality was unknown, was found among the wreckage along with 1.2 metric tons of cocaine.
Venezuela has become a key transit country for narcotics. Much of the cocaine moves north to Central America on a dog-legged path to avoid entering Colombian airspace.
Tras la operación de interdicción aérea que permitió al Sistema de Defensa Nacional detectar en el espacio aéreo colombiano un avión Hawker 800 que cayó al mar cuando huía en una persecución de aviones de la Fuerza Aérea Colombiana, el Coronel Farid Kairos, Comandante del Comando Aéreo del Norte reveló que la aeronave provenía de Venezuela.
