In Alicante’s Port area, authorities are continuing their investigation into a violent stabbing that left a 25-year-old man seriously injured. The incident involved multiple individuals who were present during a chaotic scene at the port, and recent reports indicate that two people connected to the stabbing were transferred to a regional center for youths this week. Police confirmed the transfer via sources close to the case. One suspect identified as a minor with North African nationality has been placed in a juvenile facility, while investigators remain intent on locating additional participants who appear in surveillance video. The case has drawn attention because the footage suggests the involvement of several others, and the search for those individuals remains active as the inquiry proceeds through standard police channels.
Initial accounts from security staff indicate that two participants fled the scene inside a car that included the alleged perpetrator and another person whose identity had not yet been established at the time. The local authorities reported that one detainee was driving the vehicle and another participant was observed kicking the victim while he lay on the ground. Those two individuals were subsequently released after appearing in court on duty, with legal representation continuing to work the case. Investigators are coordinating with prosecutors to determine the roles of the detainees and assess whether any additional charges are warranted as the investigation unfolds.
Law enforcement and security officials have identified additional individuals from surveillance footage and are urging the public to assist with locating them. At least a dozen people are believed to have attempted to intervene during the attack, highlighting the disruptive level of violence that unfolded over a holiday weekend. The National Police were alerted to the stabbing and arrived on the scene to find two men involved in the incident, one of whom was actively trying to stop a bleeding wound. An ambulance was called and the injured man was transported to a regional hospital for treatment. He remained hospitalized as medical staff prepared for potential surgery, though he ultimately opted for discharge before any operative procedure. Neither the victim nor the other individuals present responded to subsequent court notices, complicating the legal process as investigators work to reconstruct the sequence of events and identify all parties involved.
