Violence Erupts at América Serenata Outside Toluca Hotel

Witness videos documented injuries, with police response drawing criticism.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets verified that a late-night serenata by América supporters outside a Paseo Tollocan hotel devolved into a large fight.
  • Witness accounts and footage describe a group of roughly 30 attackers using pyrotechnics, bottles and rocks against the Americanistas.
  • Reports note injuries, including a fan with a visible head wound, with one outlet also reporting a pregnant woman and a minor hurt.
  • Hotel staff sheltered fans inside after the clashes as onlookers alleged that officers nearby failed to intervene promptly.
  • No official injury tally or detailed authority statement had been released, no detentions were reported, and the TolucaAmérica match later today has top-of-table implications.
