Three people were injured in two unrelated fights in Madrid tonight, one in Plaza de Tirso de Molina in the Centro district and another in Hacienda de Pavones street in Moratalaz, a spokeswoman for Emergencies Madrid reports. A National Police spokesman explains that the first fight is a small incident, a brawl between two regular thugs in the area, while the second incident is being investigated as a possible new incident between youth gangs, although no other hypothesis is ruled out. .
This aggression took place around two in the morning at 174 Hacienda de Pavones street, emergency details, inside the municipal multipurpose sports fields. These courts were the scene of a clash between two groups of young people, one of whom fled in a hurry, leaving an 18-year-old man seriously injured. The young man, who was with friends and did not tell the doctors about his attackers, had four stab wounds: two stab wounds on his back, one penetrating, and two more on his right arm.
“One of them, on the forearm, needed a tourniquet because she had lost a lot of blood,” explains the emergency spokeswoman. The other, in the hand, has attacked the tendons and “if she does not recover well or the tendons are very affected, she can even lose mobility.” Samur Civil Protection doctors helped him, stabilized him and transferred him to Gregorio Marañón Hospital, where he was admitted in serious condition.

According to the witnesses to the agents who had been relocated there, one group of youths in this usual enclave of youth gang members attacked another with knives.
