## Wave of knife attacks across Catalonia

This incident marks the second stabbing in Barcelona within hours. In the early hours of Monday, a man was killed in Nou Barris following a group attack, which is under investigation. In Terrassa, three municipal police officers were injured during a knife fight on 11 October in the Ca n'Anglada neighbourhood, where a group of six to seven people clashed. One officer was bitten, and the partition of a police vehicle was destroyed. In Girona, two separate stabbings occurred: one at a bar involving two Colombian men, one of whom was critically injured, and another in the Devesa neighbourhood between three men of Maghrebi origin who had previously argued.
