Overview

• Security footage aired by América Hoy shows a gray SUV ramming Rodríguez’s red car, a man identified as Gustavo Salcedo exiting, and knocking and kicking the producer in the street outside a legal office.
• Rodríguez filed a criminal complaint, and his lawyer, Gabriela Navarro, alleges a pattern of threats since March and notes a child was present during the incident.
• Medical staff treated Rodríguez for a head wound with stitches and clinic observation, and his counsel warns preexisting chronic conditions could worsen.
• Maju Mantilla condemned the attack, stated Salcedo has never been violent toward her, and said she is seeking a conciliatory arrangement centered on their children.
• Salcedo has avoided offering a full account to América Hoy; he previously said on Magaly TV, La Firme, “Bien merecido, ¿no crees?”, and Día D reported—without official confirmation—that the SUV involved is registered to Mantilla.
