Overview

• Guzmán described being stopped at Dorrego station around 6:30 p.m., accused as a thief by a female officer who he says struck him behind the ear with a baton.
• Subway security personnel denied that the officer hit him, a contradiction Guzmán says intensified his fear during the stop.
• He filed a report with Internal Affairs so the episode appears in the officer’s record but chose not to press a criminal case.
• According to Guzmán, the officer privately apologized and blamed malfunctioning QR equipment and a lack of mobile credit, and he says he forgave her.
• He characterizes the stop as part of a recurring “razia” that targets darker‑skinned people and highlights precarious conditions for officers as a contributing factor.
