Man Detained After Teacher Stabbed at Mexico City Primary School Parade

Authorities have presented the 31-year-old to the Ministerio Público for legal determination.

Overview

  • Police say the physical education teacher was stabbed in the head after intervening to protect a 10-year-old student who was being assaulted.
  • The incident occurred during a Revolution Day parade at the Gertrudis Bocanegra de Lazo de la Vega primary school in San Felipe de Jesús, Gustavo A. Madero.
  • Witnesses, including staff and parents, restrained the suspect until SSC officers arrived following a radio alert.
  • Officers secured an approximately 20-centimeter knife and took the suspect into custody for processing.
  • Paramedics treated the 55-year-old teacher on site without hospital transfer, and investigators have not confirmed the suspect’s relationship to the child, which reports describe inconsistently.
