Luis Alejandro had joined a protest outside 'La Carlota' military base in Caracas after opposition leader Juan Guaido called on Venezuelans to support the "final phase" of his effort to remove President Nicolas Maduro from office. A series of Reuters photographs shows the 26-year-old business manager being hit and run over by the armored personnel carrier. Reuters photographer Ueslei Marcelino was at La Carlota and captured the images of Luis Alejandro as he was dragged under the fast-moving Chinese-built VN-4 armored personnel carrier, known as the "Rhinoceros." "I was watching and couldn't believe it," said Marcelino, who also snapped pictures of the vehicle picking up dust with a shoe flying in the air as it passed over Luis Alejandro's body.
