AP reports that the Guatemalan man from the U.S. has been in the country for more than 100 days, and that Granana Alberto Gil Flores was killed in a traffic incident. According to AP, the man was convicted after the incident, and he has been detained in the U.S. since then.

The AP says that, according to the investigation, the man was responsible for the murder of 2,295 people, and that he was also involved in the deaths of 11,000 people; the investigation says that he was responsible for the deaths of people in open spaces, and that he was also responsible for the deaths of people in the city.
AP says that medical documents indicate that the man may have suffered from serious injuries that could have been caused by the incident, and that he is currently being treated.
In the lawsuit filed by the man, the AP says that in the U.S. he is facing deportation proceedings, and that he is asking to stop the proceedings. According to AP, the man was granted a stay of deportation while the case is being considered.
AP quotes Donna M. Barret, chargé d’affaires of the U.S. in Venezuela, who said that the U.S. is calling for the immediate release of the man and that the U.S. will continue to cooperate with the Venezuelan authorities. General Francisco Donovan, commander of U.S. Southern Command, said that the U.S. has not found evidence of wrongdoing by the Venezuelan authorities, and that the U.S. will continue to work to prevent further harm.
