A 15-year-old girl named Angie Sofía Díaz was found dead by her father in their home in Bruselas, Pitalito, Huila. Authorities are investigating the case as a possible suicide by mechanical asphyxiation. The incident has caused deep sorrow in the community.
The tragic incident took place on Sunday morning, when Angie Sofía Díaz, 15 years old, was alone in her home in the Bruselas corregimiento, under the jurisdiction of Pitalito municipality in southern Huila. Upon returning, her father discovered the teenager's body hanging from a rope, prompting him to immediately notify the authorities.
According to preliminary information, the marks and signs on the body are consistent with self-inflicted mechanical asphyxiation. Units from the Judicial Police arrived at the scene to conduct verification and evidence collection tasks. The medical legal report is awaited to precisely determine the causes of death, as investigations continue to clarify the motives.
The death has caused dismay among family and friends, who have expressed their grief on social media. Nancy Barrera wrote: “May God receive her in his holy glory, peace in her grave, my deepest condolences to the family.” Meanwhile, Adriana reflected: “People think that by judging they do a lot. She was a minor who suffered the absence of her mother, abandonment; no one knows anyone else's story, especially a girl's, when at that age she only needs love and a lot of care. Leave words of encouragement, not words from supposedly perfect people. She only needed love and care. Angie, your departure is painful; may God comfort your little sister and your dad. I still can't believe it.”
This case highlights the importance of providing emotional support to vulnerable youth, though authorities have not disclosed further details about the minor's personal context.
