Narrative:
Una avioneta color rojo y blanco, con registro HK-4342 G, aterrizó en la carretera que cruza la comunidad de Punta de Ocote, Morazán, Yoro, con un cargamento de cocaína a las 6:30 de la tarde de ayer.
El avión al caer con las alas mató a un motociclista que circulaba por la carretera. La víctima fue identificada como Israel Martínez Euceda, de 18 años de edad.

Note: The burned wreck is not the same aircraft (sub) type as at the file photo...! (check the different landing gear door and exhaust pipe, wingtip....)
Varias personas, que no son de esa comunidad, se encontraban esperando el aterrizaje de la avioneta, rescataron a los pilotos y se llevaron la mayor parte del cargamento.
Poco después llegó la policía al lugar y encontró la aeronave en dos pedazos y alrededor de 25 kilos de cocaína en un saco.
Los sujetos que esperaban la caída del aparato, dispararon contra los pobladores de la aldea, para evitar que se acercaran y tener tiempo para descargar la droga.
Luego de retirar la droga los narcotraficantes incendiaron el aparato.
