As confirmed to this newspaper by investigators deployed in Mocein (Toledo), the National Guard arrested a young man suspected of the death of Mateo, an 11-year-old boy from Mocein (Toledo). This is a young man of around 20 years old. The arrest took place in the city of Mocein after a long search operation.

On Monday, Mosaien woke up still in shock and disbelief as dozens of uniformed and plainclothes agents searched different parts of the town, looking for the sharp object the attacker had used to stab the minor more than a dozen times while he was playing soccer on a field with some friends.

According to the National Guard, the search for weapons and the perpetrators of the incident was carried out by agents from the Organic Judicial Police Unit, the Illescas Laboratory and Investigation Unit and the Information Group of the Toledo Command. On Sunday, shortly after the incident, a helicopter participated in the search for the suspect.

“We have learned from the media that it was a man between 16 and 22 years old, with shaved blond hair, tattoos and his face was covered,” he said of the attacker at Mocejn Square at noon today. Axel SanchezMateo’s mother’s cousin is a journalist and the family’s spokesman. “I did this for my family, trying to act as a shield so they don’t have to go through this,” he explained in a tearing voice.

He added: “My cousin was devastated, he was trying to come to terms with the fact that Mateo was no longer here, he went to play football and then they killed him.” He described the attacker as “an unwelcome person who approached them but with bad luck Mateo was caught”.

The boy was playing football with two friends of the same age on the football field of the sports center. The young man covered his face with a handkerchief and, with a knife in his hand, entered the football field. He first addressed a group of teenagers aged 14 to 15 who ran away when he saw him, and since he could not catch up with them, he caught up with Mateo and his friends. “It was Mateo’s turn because it could have been the others too,” explained Axel Sánchez.

A family spokesman said the attackers entered the sports center through a hole in the side of the approximately three-meter-high fence surrounding the facility. “You have to be from the area to know where that hole is,” he noted.
