Statement from the official about the incident”I never imagined that after all we’ve trained, after so many years of serving honor, I’d end up giving explanations for something as absurd as this. But that’s the world today: social media records one second and forgets the context. And suddenly, an act of help turns into a viral scandal.That day we were patrolling the northern area, as usual. I was going with officer Torres, a brave, dedicated colleague and with whom I have worked shoulder to shoulder for three years. Suddenly, a call alerted us to a disturbance near an abandoned location.
