One man was seriously injrued when shot at random in the street when out walking.

It was a tragic Saturday in Madrid with three shootings, two of them fatal. An as yet unidentified 35 year old man died after being shot in the temple. He was found lying on the ground by a police patrol in the Las Rosas area of the capital.
He was rushed to the Ramón y Cajal hospital where he died some hours later.

The other fatality was a 35 year old Chinaman who died in the Gregorio Marañon Hospital after being shot three times in the early hours in a discotec in Avenida de Sanaa Eugenia.

And finally a 52 year old man was seriously injured when shot in the street, in Calle Luchana in the Chamberí district.
It seems that he was shot by chance when walking in the street, and reports say he continued to walk for some time before he realised that he had been hit.
