Possible account
A man around 35 years old was stabbed to death on a Saturday afternoon in Valencia. After the victim parked her car in a space reserved for medical personnel, two assailants confronted her at the doorway of the San Marcelino ambulance facility. They fled the scene soon after the attack. The victim sustained multiple stab wounds and a puncture wound that appears to be from a bullet or a small caliber firearm.
The incident occurred near eight o’clock in the evening on Salvador Perles street in Valencia. Moments earlier, a man had parked in front of the San Marcelino health center in a space designated for staff when two men who were waiting for him allegedly approached and attacked him.
Stab in the heart
Early findings point to a potential personal vendetta as a motive. The alleged attackers reportedly fired a shot to the back with a small caliber weapon, though the wound did not appear life threatening at first glance and could have been a pellet. The victims then suffered several additional stab wounds, including a fatal blow to the chest.
The two suspects wasted no time in fleeing, leaving the victim on the ground. A large police presence assembled at the scene, including Valencian Local Police, the National Police, and an ambulance response team. Despite their efforts, the man was declared dead at the scene.
National Police homicide investigators are examining the circumstances of the crime and working to identify the alleged perpetrators. In parallel, a team from the police’s scientific section is conducting a technical review to uncover traces that could assist investigators. Authorities will review nearby surveillance footage and reconstruct the escape route reportedly used by the suspects in the murder.
The Valencia Criminal Court of First Instance No. 21 authorized the removal of the body after the morning hours for autopsy. The deceased, a man in his mid-thirties, was transported to the Valencia Institute of Forensic Medicine where the autopsy was performed. The examination confirmed multiple stab wounds, with one reaching the heart, and the presence of a wound that resembles a bullet entry point.
