A plucky lawyer was shot three times while standing up for himself during a street robbery.
Andrés Felipe Martínez was walking his dog when two armed men approached him on a motorcycle.
The CCTV footage shows one suspect jumping off the back of the bike before pointing his gun at the 32-year-old.

The criminal lawyer threw a punch at the gunman but appeared to miss.
He then continued to advance on the suspect who backpedalled away while seemingly firing his gun.
Andrés fell to the ground while holding his stomach area as the two suspects fled the scene on the motorbike.
At one point he sat up in a pool of his own blood before lying on the ground again.
Several neighbours rush to his aid.
The alleged shooting took place in the trendy neighbourhood of Chapinero Alto in the Colombian capital Bogotá.
Police spokesperson Lieutenant Colonel Juan Camilo Montilla said the victim was shot three times while walking his pet dog.
He added that the two suspects are still currently on the run.
The lawyer was taken to the nearby Marly Clinic where he remains in intensive care.
His mother Constanza Gutiérrez, who also works as a lawyer, told local media: “They shot him in the left arm, the right leg and the stomach.
“He is currently in critical condition in intensive care, and they have not been able to remove the bullet from his stomach.
“The doctor told me that the bullet in his belly is what matters right now.
“It pierced his small intestine, vena cava and colon.”
She added that the injury to his left arm will realistically leave him with “permanent partial disability”.
According to the victim’s mother, he will have to undergo at least three further operations.
He will also need 20 units of type A positive blood, which is currently being donated by friends and relatives, as reported by Need To Know.
The police said that an “investigative unit has been set up to find those responsible and bring them before the competent authorities”.
The investigation into the attack at around 1.55pm last Wednesday (16 Jan) continues.
