Eight of the dead were allegedly members of the armed group, and the other three were residents, authorities said in a statement.
The conflict was caused by a collection of “land rights,” a common practice of extortion in Latin America, Xinhua news agency reported.
As per local media outlet Milenio, the shooting allegedly followed a failed negotiation, in which the criminal suspects sought to raise the amount they charged the residents.
