According to the National Police, the two agents who were injured in an explosion at warehouse number 2 of the Department of Weapons Intendency last Saturday are now in stable condition. The injured agents are a sergeant major and an assimilated officer from the institution.

In an update on their medical reports, the Police stated that the assimilated officer, Miguel Mota Pierre, suffered from polytrauma and traumatic amputation of his right leg, while Sergeant Major Edward Gómez suffered an anfractuous wound on the inside of his right arm. Both agents were hit by non-dangerous firearm projectiles due to the heat caused by the explosion.
