Just removed material concerning an alleged son of Rodriguez Gacha. The same 'editor' who added the material referenced the same alleged son in the Pablo Escobar article. Probably done by a friend of the alleged son or the alleged son, himself. Tapered (talk) 01:11, 3 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Death edit

Seems to be rather incomplete, comparing to the Spanish Wikipedia.

Long story short, a team of around 20 elite members raided a ranch owned by him. He and his son fled in a red Chevrolet pickup truck, followed by a helicopter from the elite squad. The helicopter fired at the truck to disable it and killed his son during that process, he was sitting in the passenger seat. Gacha stepped out of the disabled vehicle, shot at the helicopter with his hand gun and screamed insulting things to the helicopter and after a short while he did commit suicide with a hand grenade. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ChrisRoad (talk • contribs) 19:17, 30 August 2015 (UTC)Reply

I noticed this article is included in the category 1941 births, but the article lists Rodriguez Gacha as being born in 1947. Which one is correct? Hog Farm (talk) 05:13, 11 December 2019 (UTC)Reply

Whether one date is incorrect is not actually the issue. When do reliable, published sources say he was born?--Quisqualis (talk) 18:56, 11 December 2019 (UTC)Reply
