Two men were stabbed inside a nightclub on the plaza Salamero, in the centre of Zaragoza, at about 5.30am on 2 August 2026. Both survived. Officers were alerted by several calls to the emergency line reporting a stabbing inside the venue. On arrival they found a man lying at the entrance with two knife wounds, to the abdomen and to a thigh, bleeding heavily. They gave first aid until the ambulance service arrived and took him urgently to hospital. While gathering information, officers found a second victim inside: the venue's security guard, who had a knife wound to one leg and was bleeding significantly, and who was also treated by the emergency services. The attackers had left before police arrived. Over the following weeks investigators analysed the available footage and witness statements and reconstructed the events. They concluded that one of the alleged attackers had stabbed the two victims at least four times in total, that a second had inflicted a head injury on one of them, and that a third had caused minor injuries around the eye of the other. On 20 August 2026 the national police arrested two men aged 24. One, who has nine prior police records, is accused of causing grave bodily harm; the other, who has four, was arrested on suspicion of attempted homicide. Both were brought before the duty court the following day, which remanded the alleged author of the attempted homicide in custody and released the second on charges. A third person has been identified and is under investigation for a minor injuries offence.
