Overview

• Lex Ashton, 19, is under SSC custody in a hospital after fracturing both legs in a jump from a campus building following the attack.
• FGJCDMX is investigating him for homicide and injuries after the death of 16-year-old Jesús Israel Hernández Chávez, whose necropsy cites a fatal neck stab wound.
• Authorities are reviewing posts attributed to Ashton in incel groups, including a message hours before the assault that said “no pienso irme solo” and used terms like chads, foids and brocels.
• Media cite a reported claim that he intended to kill six people and references to past bullying, but these accounts have not been confirmed by prosecutors.
• The case has intensified calls for stronger campus security and scrutiny of online incel networks, with experts warning about youth radicalization and some fan pages praising the attacker appearing on social platforms.
