Two brawls in Málaga on Saturday morning left four people with stab wounds, one of the victims being currently in the Intensive Care Unit at the Hospital Regional Carlos Haya.
Police and medics had just finished attending to the injured from one fight when news came in of another brawl where the injuries sustained were more serious.
The second incident, following which a 17 year old youth is in a coma, occurred in Camino de Los Almendrales in the area connecting the districts of Fuente Olletas and El Limonar. Arriving on the scene, the police found two people with stab wounds, one of them in a serious condition after the severing of an artery.
The actual sequence of events is as yet unclear, but it appears to have been gang related.
