A Colombian surveillance team used radio trilateration technology to track Escobar’s radiotelephone transmissions and found him hiding in Los Olivos, a middle-class barrio in Medellín.

With authorities closing in, a firefight with him and his bodyguard, Álvaro de Jesús Agudelo (El Limón), ensued.

The two fugitives attempted to escape by running across the roofs of adjoining houses to reach a back street, but both were shot and killed by Colombian National Police.

Escobar suffered gunshots to the leg and torso, and a fatal gunshot through the ear.

It has never been proven who actually fired the final shot into his ear, or determined whether this shot was made during the gunfight or as part of a possible execution, with wide speculation remaining regarding the subject.

Some of Escobar‘s relatives believe that he had committed suicide. His two brothers, Roberto Escobar and Fernando Sánchez Arellano, believe that he shot himself through the ear.

The duo stated that Pablo ‘had committed suicide, he did not get killed.

During all the years they went after him, he would say to me every day that if he was really cornered without a way out, he would ‘shoot himself through the ear’.

Pablo Emilio Escobar Gaviria was a Colombian drug lord, narco terrorist, and politician who founded and was the sole leader of the Medellín Cartel.

Dubbed ‘The King of Cocaine’, Escobar is the wealthiest criminal in history, having amassed an estimated net worth of US$30 billion by the time of his death – equivalent to US$58 billion as of 2018.
