Last night on April 14, 2017, a 76 year old U.S. expat living in Nabón, Ecuador about 48 km from Cuenca was a victim of a home invasion. Reports indicate that four men with firearms entered the expat's residence. He was shot three times per twitter accounts in the abdomen. His wife evaded the attack by hiding in the bathroom and a housekeeper was threatened but apparently not injured. News sources are reporting the victim's name as David Albert Senechalle. However, this name may ot be correct as often the case with misspellings of names in the press. Early reports stated the victim's name as David (C). The assailants removed numerous items from the residence. An alarm was activated. Nabón is a rural area.
