A prominent Colombian presidential candidate was in “grave” condition and “fighting for his life” in hospital Sunday, after an alleged teen gunman shot him twice in the head at a Bogota campaign rally.
Thirty-nine-year-old right-wing Senator Miguel Uribe underwent successful initial surgery to contain injuries from the attack.
Hundreds took to the streets in major cities on Sunday to light candles, pray and voice their anger at the attack.
