- Rodríguez’s attorney, Gabriela Navarro, confirmed a formal criminal complaint against Salcedo that cites the alleged assault and earlier harassment.
- A police report details months of alleged hostigamiento, including messages threatening to “llenar de plomo,” with incidents recorded from March through September involving the victim and his family.
- Rodríguez sustained a head wound that required stitches and remains under medical observation, with his lawyer noting pre-existing chronic conditions that could worsen the harm.
