Colombian man shot dead in Medellin church

A Colombian man has been murdered inside a church as he attended a memorial mass for a relative who had also died violently, police say.

The 24-year-old, John Jairo Valencia Osorio, was shot a number of times by two men who approached him as he sat in the pews of a Catholic church in the city of Medellin.

The man died of his wounds in hospital.

The church has been closed until a ceremony of atonement can be carried out by the local archbishop.
