The program presented by Sonsoles Ónega, And Now Sonsoles, addressed on Wednesday afternoon one of the most shocking events of the last few hours: a 28-year-old young man had murdered his 64-year-old uncle with two knives in the middle of the street in Valencia after having disinherited him.
The event took place this past Tuesday, May 21, at the intersection of Albacete and Marvà streets in Valencia around 5:00 p.m. The 28-year-old nephew, armed with an ax and a knife, stabbed him to death. The emergency services could do nothing for his life when they arrived at the scene. ”He hugged him from behind and stabbed him in the neck with the knife,” said a local resident.
The reason for this family confrontation was an inheritance. The two had met at a law firm, but they never met. The victim wanted to remove his nephew from his will, but when he found out, he decided to end his life. The event also took place in front of a school and it was a teacher from the school and a group of parents who alerted the authorities of what was happening in the middle of the street and who chased the alleged murderer so that he did not escape. Now, the attacker is in police custody while they investigate the events.
To provide more information about what happened, the Antena 3 program interviewed Noelia live, one of the residents of the area who witnessed the brutal crime. ”Everything happened right at the door of the butcher shop where I work. It was 5 in the afternoon, we had a client with two girls who were waiting for us to open. They came in to buy and suddenly we heard everyone screaming. We thought it was someone with a knife who was killing people,’ she began by saying.
The witness claimed before the microphones of Y Ahora Sonsoles that moments later they saw a person collapse to the ground. ”My partner told me ‘we are going to close’ and she closed everything, but the girls saw everything that had happened. They panicked, it was a horrible thing, the screams…tremendous. When we started seeing blood, we stayed there, but we didn’t know what to do. We thought they were going to enter the store and do something to us,’ she confessed.
And that Noelia and her clients had no idea what was happening on the street. ”We didn’t know what was happening, everyone was screaming and then we had to lower the blinds because we thought it was someone who was going to come into the store to do something to us,” she said. Regarding the attacker, the neighbor revealed that he did not run and that he was too calm. ”The neighbors stopped him and the police immediately found him,” she said.
