Hondarribia and Barcelona report fatal shooting and serious hotel stabbing
In Hondarribia, a 46-year-old man died after being shot by a local police officer during an intervention. The incident began when the man, who had 12 previous arrests, threatened people in a hospitality establishment with a knife. During the police response, the man attempted to repeatedly stab an Ertzaintza officer. A local police officer used his service weapon to repel the attack, striking the man. Despite resuscitation efforts by emergency personnel, he was pronounced dead at the scene. The Ertzaintza is leading the investigation into the shooting.
In a separate incident in Barcelona, a 23-year-old man from Eastern Europe was seriously injured at the Hotel Casa Fuster. The victim was reportedly beaten and stabbed twice in the neck following an argument with three men. The attackers fled the scene, prompting a manhunt by the Mossos d'Esquadra. The victim is in serious but stable condition.
Additionally, in Lugo, a man was placed in provisional prison following a stabbing at a bar in the A Milagrosa neighborhood. The victim, a 38-year-old man, was hospitalized with serious injuries. In Fuengirola, a 61-year-old man was also hospitalized in serious condition after being stabbed in the street.
