The National Police has located and arrested four young people, two of them minors, allegedly involved in the stabbing of a 23-year-old man on the corner of Manuel Aleixandre street and Legazpi square.
The first investigations, carried out by the Provincial Information Brigade, point to an event related to youth gangs, although other hypotheses have not been ruled out for the moment, police sources have informed EFE.
