Overview

• Investigators executed a court-ordered arrest as the 19-year-old exited IMSS Hospital Regional No. 2 in Coyoacán after weeks under guard for injuries from his attempted escape.
• He was transferred to Reclusorio Oriente and placed at the disposal of the Ministerio Público, with an initial control hearing expected shortly.
• Prosecutors accuse him of aggravated homicide of a 16-year-old classmate and attempted homicide for injuring a 65-year-old worker during the Sept. 22 attack at UNAM’s CCH Sur.
• His attorney says medical notes point to a psychotic break and amnesia for the incident, not drug use, and signals a push for psychiatric evaluation in the case.
• Authorities continue gathering testimony and social-media material showing weapons allegedly prepared before the attack, as students call for stronger security on UNAM campuses.
