Emergency crews rushed her to hospital but she died minutes later from multiple gunshot wounds.
The attack happened as Angie waited at red lights outside the Gran Plaza San Antonio shopping centre in the town of Pitalito, Colombia, on Friday night (24 Jul).
According to reports, armed assailants on a motorbike pulled up beside her vehicle and blasted her repeatedly before speeding off.
The police launched a major chase and locked down the area within minutes.
Officers later seized a motorcycle and a firearm they believe was used in the attack.
One suspect, a 48-year-old man identified as Hermes Gaviria Cuellar, was caught hiding in undergrowth after a dramatic pursuit.
He is suspected of being the passenger who fired the fatal shots.
The second attacker fled on foot along a riverbank and remains at large, as reported by Need To Know.
Police chief Colonel Javier Alberto said: “We set up an operational device and, thanks to the immediate reaction of our officers, we achieved the capture in the act of a 48-year-old man after a wide pursuit.”
The victim was known for posting glamorous snaps of her travels, family gatherings and daily life online.
Friends described her as a businesswoman and model who shared her dreams and special moments with followers.
Investigators continue to hunt the motive and the remaining suspect.
