11月11日，哥伦比亚考卡山谷省分别发生了两场种族仇杀，造成七人死亡。外电报道如下：Seven people were killed Wednesday in two separate vendettas² in Colombia's western department of Valle del Cauca, police said Thursday.

Police in Cali, provincial³ capital of Valle del Cauca, said both vendettas are between drug pushers and other criminal organizations.

Vendetta¹表示“族间仇杀，世仇，宿怨”，由于该词往往意味着血腥屠杀和深仇大恨，有时也用作戏谑，例如：wage a personal vendetta against the Post Office（个人向邮局进行的长期斗争）。
