The French Anti-Terrorist Prosecutor's Office is investigating the shootings in the towns of Trappes and La Verrière, about thirty kilometers southwest of Paris, as a terrorist act linked to racism. According to a statement issued, the agency is investigating events that could have been committed by "reason of belonging, real or supposed, to a particular race, ethnicity, nation or religion" or also for "criminal terrorist association with the aim of preparing crimes against persons".

Justice must not kill. This idea is part of the European legal consensus built around human rights. In the 46 member states of the Council of Europe, no one has been executed since 1997, when the last execution took place in Ukraine. Abolition is today a condition for membership. The exception on the continent is Belarus, outside the Council of Europe, which maintains capital punishment. But this legal consensus coexists with a certain social erosion. According to the 2025 Barcelona Social Values Survey, 35.7% of Barcelona residents believe that the death penalty can be justified always or in some circumstances; among young people aged 15 to 24, the percentage reaches 47%. The trend is not only local. In several countries of the European Union, support for capital punishment is around 50% or higher. In the United Kingdom, in recent months, far-right groups have proposed reinstating it, also appealing to opinion polls. All of this is part of a broader context in which the European populist right advocates for increasingly harsh penal policies.

Just before the burst of gunfire begins, the two agents, who are not in uniform, repeatedly shout "Guardia Civil, Guardia Civil" with their guns in their hands. A few meters away, a man half-hidden behind some cars gesticulates intensely, at one point raising his hands. Suddenly, another one appears on the scene, coming out of a building and firing, without asking and practically at point-blank range, at one of the two agents, who also respond with shots. One police officer is left lying on the ground while the other, after walking a few meters, also falls. There, they beat him with a stick, on his head and body, while the first man, the one who was initially behind the cars, insists: "Show me your badge, show me your badge". The police officer takes something out of his pocket, which cannot be perceived from the angle of view of the neighbor who is recording it all, and the man ends up stopping his companions to prevent them from continuing to assault the agent.

The Mossos d'Esquadra are investigating a new shooting with a subsequent illegal detention –for it to be a kidnapping there would have to be a ransom demand– in the metropolitan area. The incident took place this Monday around seven in the evening, when the Catalan police received notice of shots in the Ca n'Espinós housing development, one of the most troubled neighborhoods in the municipality, especially regarding drug-related issues. A witness said that a motorcyclist had been shot at from a vehicle and the attackers had loaded him, wounded, into the trunk of the same vehicle.

A drug conflict between two familiar clans who know each other and compete for territorial control in Badalona. This is the main police hypothesis about the shooting that took place this Sunday afternoon in the Sant Roc neighborhood of the Catalan city in which a 10-year-old minor was injured in the arm by a ricochet bullet. The girl, who was admitted to the hospital and is out of danger, would be part of one of the feuding families.

The man shot last Tuesday in broad daylight on a terrace in the Sant Martí district of Barcelona died this Sunday afternoon in hospital, as ARA has learned. The victim, 44, was seriously injured after receiving several bullet impacts to the neck, arms, and abdomen, as well as several stab wounds. Finally, six days later, he died in the hospital.

The objective was to kill him. Three people walked up to a man who was on a terrace with his wife and his son, who was resting in a stroller. Suddenly, they opened fire with a pistol. Neighbors heard five shots. One of the bullets hit him in the neck. A ricocheting bullet grazed a pedestrian passing on the other side of the street, although it did not cause serious injuries. The woman and the child were unharmed. Afterward, when the target of the attack was already lying on the ground, badly wounded, they also attacked him with a bladed weapon. Once they finished the attempted execution, they fled, also on foot, in the direction of the sea.

It was four in the afternoon when a man, his wife, and their son were sitting on the terrace of a bar in the Sant Martí district of Barcelona.

A witness heard five shots from his house. "At first, I thought they were firecrackers," he explains. Later, however, he poked his head out of the balcony and saw a man lying on the ground, covered in blood.
