Two young people aged 19 and 20 were injured in a fight in the Plaza de las Sufragistas in the Villaverde district of Madrid on the night of Tuesday to Wednesday. said a spokesman for Madrid Emergencies. The Samur stabilized the two men and took them to hospitals in serious condition with multiple stab wounds to various parts of their bodies. According to the first information gathered, a group of young people approached the two victims who were sitting on a bench. Police have taken over the investigation, but the nature of the attack is similar to attacks carried out by youth gangs to defend their territory.
According to Emergencies Madrid, one of the young men had a serious injury to his right hand, abdomen and right hemithorax, while the other had a “significant” injury to his right shoulder, forearm and foot, as well as a non-penetrating wound his back. the hemithorax.
Three months ago, on November 20th, there was another attack by youth gangs at the same location and almost identically. Two young people were injured by a group of people who arrived there in a vehicle and began threatening and attacking them with knives. One of them was seriously injured in the face, another suffered injuries in the side.
On this occasion, the police managed to identify the suspected perpetrators, a minor and four adults, and they were arrested in December as part of several operations carried out over the last four months against members of the gangs, particularly the two of the gangs most active, the Dominicans Don't Play and the Trinitarios. A total of 31 members of these groups were arrested between September and December. On that occasion, the five people were charged with attempted murder and membership in a criminal organization because they were related to the Trinitarios.
This attack is also a copy of another that occurred at the Green Wedge Railway Park in Arganzuela in early 2023. The same pattern: two boys are sitting on a bench and a large group of Trinidadians arrive and attack them with machetes. One of them suffered a terrible wound to his face while trying to defend himself, and the other suffered a deep cut to his arm. On this occasion, twelve gang members were arrested, including five minors. All of them were ordered to be sent to a correctional facility or a youth facility because of attempted murder and membership in a criminal organization.
