This is the terrifying moment a woman grabbed a security guard’s gun and opened fire as she was put into the back of a police van.

Three people were injured in the violent incident that occurred Monday outside a busy Chilean market while the woman was being detained.

Footage of the incident shows the unnamed woman’s arms were held behind her back as two armored guards carried her toward a detention van.

When she reached the van, a third guard in a high-visibility jacket got out of the front seat and opened the rear doors so he could place her in the back of the vehicle.

However, before she was guided to the truck, she was able to reach behind her and pull a revolver from the holster of the guard holding her arms.

This is the dramatic moment a woman grabbed a guard’s gun and opened fire as she was put into the back of a police van.

With her arms behind her back, the woman was able to reach into a guard’s holster and pull out what appeared to be a revolver, before firing several shots.

Bystanders, as well as one of the armored guards, scattered when he opened fire, and the guard even jumped over a concrete wall to safety.

The woman is seen after opening fire with the guard’s gun and being taken to another police car.

Only when the third guard who had opened the door turned around did he realize that she had taken her gun out of its holster. By now, it was too late.

With her arms still behind her back, the woman was able to fire several bullets, causing panic among passersby.

The first bullet was fired into the ground, causing the three guards to jump back, startled, and the guard behind to jump behind a concrete barrier.

As the other two attempted to wrestle the firearm away from her, the woman was able to escape the guard’s grasp and fire several more shots into the crowd.

People who witnessed the incident, including the cameraman, were forced to run back through the market and away from the angry gunwoman.

Three people were injured in the shooting, including a guard and the cameraman who captured the moment on a live broadcast.

He was later seen in photographs bent over in pain, clutching his stomach.

The cameraman was taken to hospital with serious injuries, but was in stable condition, according to the national newspaper La Nación, cited by the BBC.

The woman is detained after she grabbed a security guard’s gun and fired, wounding three people, outside the Lo Valledor wholesale market in Santiago, Chile, on Monday, April 1.

As for the woman, she was subdued and was later seen on another video being put into the back of a different police vehicle.

At one point he seemed to laugh.

The violence erupted as Chilean officials announced new security measures at the Lo Valledor Wholesale Market that would be implemented within a week, designed to combat local crime.

A new measure that has caused controversy requires a Chilean identity card to enter the market.
