A deadly prison riot erupted in Machala, Ecuador, as rival gangs Los Lobos and Los Choneros turned cells into a battlefield. Gunfire, explosions, and smoke filled the corridors while officers rushed in, facing ambushes and hostages. One guard was killed, and inmates blasted a hole in the wall to escape. For 40 tense minutes, chaos reigned inside the overcrowded facility, leaving fourteen dead and fourteen injured.
