TV Producer Christian Rodríguez Hospitalized After Attack, Names Gustavo Salcedo in Police Complaint

Authorities are reviewing a complaint that identifies Gustavo Salcedo as the attacker.

Overview

  • Rodríguez reported he was struck by a vehicle and then beaten outside a law office in Lima, with his wife and minor son present during the incident.
  • He received emergency care for head injuries at Clínica Ricardo Palma, later underwent a medico-legal exam, and then went to the San Isidro police station to file the complaint.
  • Entertainment programs aired videos and photos showing Rodríguez bloodied, an ambulance at the scene, and damage to his vehicle consistent with a rear impact.
  • A witness described seeing the assailant exit a gray SUV, kick Rodríguez to the ground, and drive away, while separate images showed the producer leaving the clinic for police procedures.
  • Media-cited police paperwork and sources reference earlier threats and prior confrontations, and legal commentators say potential charges could follow if the authorities corroborate the complaint, as Salcedo’s fuller response was pending ahead of a scheduled TV interview.
