The City Council of Humahuaca established three days of mourning for the death of young Daniel Condorí, “Pato”, during the confrontation between neighbors and members of the organization “Titi Guerra”, who attempted to usurp a land in the city.

The organization tried to take land inhabited by a family of Humahuaca and found unexpected resistance: The villagers took the matter in hand and casted them out.

In the confrontation, villagers torched two buses and two trucks four by four of Marmoset War, and managed to oust the usurpers.
