Agua Marina Attack: Keyboardist Stable After Surgery as Artists Tighten Security

Police describe a targeted assault with an automatic weapon, intensifying criticism of state inaction despite a leadership change.

Overview

  • César More underwent successful thoracic surgery and is recovering, while Luis and Manuel Quiroga remain stable under medical care with police presence at their clinic, according to family and RPP reports.
  • Five people were wounded in the October 8 shooting at the Círculo Militar in Chorrillos, including four members of the group and a vendor identified as Percy Nolasco.
  • Investigators recovered 23 shell casings and suspect a mini Uzi–type automatic weapon was used in a directed attack, said General Felipe Monroy of the Lima police.
  • Agua Marina condemned what it called state abandonment and argued that a presidential change will not improve security without concrete measures.
  • Heightened fear across the music scene has led to new precautions, including Armonía 10 performing in bulletproof vests and Luigui Carbajal weighing similar protection, with some acts pausing or reassessing shows.
