MS-13's bloody trail in Madrid: Two murders and a hit ordered for $3,400
Briefly

On June 16, a young man with ties to the Mara Salvatrucha (MS-13) was fatally stabbed in Getafe, prompting police to arrest a minor from the rival Trinitarios gang as a suspect. The incident raises concerns about gang-related violence in Spain, particularly in light of earlier arrests of MS-13 members. Investigators are exploring whether the murder was gang-related, as direct confrontations between these organizations are not typical. The backdrop of this conflict includes a history of gang activity and violence in Madrid's neighborhoods.
The young man who died after collapsing in a pharmacy in Getafe from a stab wound had previously been arrested for belonging to the Mara Salvatrucha.
The suspect arrested for the June 16 homicide is a minor affiliated with the Trinitarios gang who had been hiding at a friend's house.
