The events took place around eight in the evening, according to sources close to the case, in an apartment on Moreneta street in the town of Girona. The initial investigations indicate that three men entered a home where there were three others and a dispute later broke out. The Mossos do not yet know the relationship between the two groups. The police suspect that they stole some valuable object from inside the building.
The dispute that started in the apartment escalated, and the tenants, who according to sources close to the case were Colombians, ran out, with the other three men chasing them. At that moment, in the middle of the street, one of the attackers shot one of those fleeing and hit him in the lower part of the leg. The attackers managed to get into a car and flee the scene.
