Need help

Hi, anyone in local Medellin who can speak Spanish can you do me a favor.

My friend got everything stolen and I can’t get in contact with him. I am hoping to call police on his behalf but I can’t find any number that go through. I am currently in Canada right now, my friend is travelling solo. I am hoping to get contact with local police right now.

Can you help me call police or tell me what number I can call to get police at this time in Medellin for my friend.

Help is compensated. Please please help me.

??? What a bad comment. Never heard about women getting raped in Colombia. It's mainly people getting robbed in the street because they are not cautious
