In Mutxamel’s Almajada district, a Friday night around nine unfolded with a frightening incident as a 45-year-old woman walking her dog along Samaruc Street was targeted by a hooded man who hurled a solvent-based chemical toward her face. The spray produced a sharp sting and irritation, causing the victim to stagger backward while bystanders cried out for help. The normally quiet street grew tense as neighbors realized someone had deliberately attacked a familiar neighbor in the evening hours. The incident left a noticeable residue on the skin and sparked concerns about chemical exposure and eye irritation in a neighborhood that usually feels safe after dark.
