When Colombian senator and presidential hopeful Miguel Uribe Turbay was shot in the head on 7 June, it shocked the international community. After years of growing peace, the attack was a callback to Colombia's most violent years, when cartel-ordered assassinations were a common occurrence.
But the identity of the alleged shooter proved even more shocking - a 15-year-old child.
A video, shared widely online, shows police arresting a young man with a boyish face and hair over his shoulders, wearing blue jeans and a green T-shirt.
Media has reported that after he was swiftly arrested, he cried out: "I did it for money for my family."
He subsequently pleaded not guilty, the prosecutor's office said.
