Horrific video has emerged of the moment a 24-year-old woman who had “no enemies” was mysteriously shot dead by a masked hitman who then fled on the back of a motorbike.
Angélica María Herrera Osmán died inside the premises of her party decoration business on May 27, police said, with CCTV footage as the gunman arrived at the location in Montenegro, near the city of Bogotá.
The attacker, whose identity is hidden by a bicycle helmet, is seen jumping off his bike and heading towards a door on the street before apparently realizing he has the wrong address.
He leaves and heads next door, and seconds later, apparently after the attack occurred, he runs out into the street and toward the bike.
The unidentified assailant and his getaway driver leave as the chilling recording ends.
CCTV footage shows the moment the attacker jumps off the bike and approaches the door before the attack happened off-camera.

He keeps his helmet on as he enters a door on the street. Apparently realizing that she has the wrong address, she leaves and heads next door.
The horror unfolded at Angelica’s workplace on May 27, where officers later recovered four bullet casings.
He had his own business called ‘Celebrando Ando’ selling party decorations at the premises.
According to Colonel Luis Fernando Atuesta of the Quindío Police, Angélica ‘was inside the establishment, and without exchanging words, they shot her multiple times.’
The motive for the murder remains a mystery, although police have ruled out robbery.
Police and prosecutors say Angelica had no problems with anyone nor had she received threats.
Investigators studied CCTV footage, which shows passers-by walking down the street while the pair of attackers are seen in the background.
The masked killer jumps off the bike and approaches the two doors, heading for the first one.
He leaves quietly and then goes next door for a few moments before leaving.
Seconds after entering through the second door, the masked assailant runs out into the street and towards the getaway bicycle. Then the couple leaves the place.
The video of their escape allowed the police to trace the route of the attackers. They located the bicycle in a parking lot and said they would summon its owner for questioning.
The mayor of Montenegro, Gustavo Pava Busch, has offered a reward of COP 10 million (£2,000) for any information leading to the downfall of the perpetrators.
Angélica graduated in social work from the University of Quindío in 2023 before starting her own business.
The investigation into his murder continues.
The homicide could be the third feminicide of the year only in the municipality and the fifth so far this year in the department of Quindío.
