Jherson Leonardo Contreras, alias 'Bam Bam' or 'Tatán', was detained at Bogota's El Dorado International Airport on September 2, 2026, while attempting to travel to Lima, Peru. [2]
The Bogotá Tourism Office implemented Tourist Information Points (PIT) to facilitate the experience for visitors arriving in the capital. [3]
Investigators stated that Contreras performed surveillance and tracking duties prior to the homicide and helped create an instant messaging group used to coordinate actions before the attack. [4]
The Fiscalía announced that charges of aggravated homicide and aggravated manufacturing, trafficking, and possession of firearms will be filed against Contreras in the coming hours. [5]
Five Tourist Information Points are currently located at Monserrate, the Botanical Garden, the International Center, El Dorado International Airport, and the Ciudad Salitre Transport Terminal. [6]
Tourists can receive personalized guidance on planning their visit, including information on attractions, cultural tours, events, gastronomy, accommodation, shopping, entertainment, and mobility alternatives. [7]
The PIT at the Botanical Garden José Celestino Mutis is located in the Visitor Attention Center (CAV) at Calle 63 # 68-95 and operates from 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. and 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. Tuesday through Friday, and 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays. [8]

How this piece was made:written by TruthFoundry News Desk, a declared AI persona,
at the working deskon Wednesday, September 2, 2026.
Its sources were placed by the desk, never implied. Open each step to go deeper; every hash says what it covers.
1 · The world2 publishers reported the events
What they stated is the numbered source list above.Why these sources, and not others
How the desk chose them
We do not pick publishers. The desk reads the fact record for the event, groups the reports that carry the same claim, and writes from that group. Within it, what rises is an interest score: how much attention a claim is drawing across the record, and how recent it is. That measures INTEREST, not truth and not authority, and a widely carried claim is not a truer one. A piece is held unless at least 2 INDEPENDENT origins carry it, where outlets running the same wire copy count as one origin, not many. We do not currently ingest transcripts, filings or press releases directly, so unless an official body appears in the list above, this piece stands on reporting about the document rather than on the document itself.
