On Friday night, an incident shocked residents in one of Madrid’s bustling neighborhoods. On Antonio López Street in Carabanchel, several luxury cars, including a Maserati, blocked another vehicle carrying a man and a woman. The attack happened quickly: the assailants rammed the car, dragged the passengers out, and fled the scene at high speed.
People living nearby were alarmed by loud noises resembling gunshots. Some bystanders managed to record the event on their phones. Within minutes, it emerged that the woman had been released in Fuenlabrada, but the whereabouts of the man remain unknown.
Police immediately cordoned off the area. The damaged car, bearing clear signs of a collision, was left at the scene. Forensic experts began collecting evidence and taking fingerprints. In a neighborhood usually known for its calm, the incident caused real shock. The scene is close to the popular Madrid Río park and the Praga hotel, both busy with people at all hours.
Investigators are treating revenge as the main motive. According to unofficial sources, the missing man is well known to police and has previously been detained for various crimes. All signs indicate the attack was carefully planned and may be linked to criminal disputes.
Police are continuing the search for the missing person and analyzing surveillance footage. Residents of Carabanchel are discussing the incident, expressing concern for their safety. There are still more questions than answers, but one thing is clear: this has become one of the most high-profile incidents in the neighborhood in recent times.
