This incident follows a series of knife attacks across the city in recent weeks. On 28 September, a man was stabbed at the Hotel Casa Fuster on Passeig de Gràcia and taken to hospital in serious but non-life-threatening condition, as reported by El Caso and confirmed by Mossos d'Esquadra sources to betevé.
During the Diada weekend, five people were injured in separate stabbings, including two minors. On 6 September, three people were stabbed in a flat on Gran Via before the alleged attacker jumped from a fourth-floor balcony and was found critically injured.
