U.S. Consular advice

Reply To: Price Peterson, Hda. La Esmeralda, Panama <price@haciendaesmeralda.com>

To Boquete residents,
   Although this advisory pertains more to the capital than to us, you might want to be aware that:

The U.S. Embassy Panama has learned that there have been several recent
shootings in the Rio Abajo area of Panama City. There are two rival
gangs warring against each other and several shootings and homicides
have occurred. The gangs have been shooting at cars that drive through
the area, these incidents have occurred after it gets dark.

Rio Abajo is already one of our Red Zones and U.S. Embassy personnel
and their family members have been advised to avoid these areas. The
Rio Abajo neighborhood is located North of Via Espana, South of
Transistmica and between Ernesto Lefevre on the West and Cincuentenario
on the East.

   So, if possible, stay here in Boquete where folks are civilized!

regards,
Price Peterson
U.S. Consular Warden
