The electoral campaign was suspended on the part of the politicians, in response to the murder of councilman Carrasco. According to sources of the investigation, a disguised gunman approached him from behind and shot him three times. Once in the nape of the neck and twice in the chest.
The emergency services transferred him to the hospital in very serious condition.
Shortly after the 14:00 local time (13:00 UTC) the Basque Department of Interior confirmed his death. Carrasco placed sixth in the electoral lists of the PSE-Electrical engineer in the municipal elections of 2007.
Carrasco had resigned to run. Prior to the campaign he worked in a public company and did not hold any public office.
