"As I was on the run, I was shot straight five yards away, and at that moment I felt my mouth broken and full of blood," he said. Police officers, when they saw the sound, "were scared," he said. So the next day he was operated on in the hospital and, as he said in the young man, "luckily everything went well."
Yesterday he filed a lawsuit in court and released the video of the impact on the X social network once he filed the complaint. "Yesterday the lawyer recommended that we file the complaint with the courts before making it public, and then we made the case public," he said.
EH Bildu has described what happened as' very serious'.

Rodriguez has pointed out that "there are videos and photographs" and that "everything suggests that this is a police action that could be illegal, once again".
In this regard, it has called on the institutions to "take responsibility" and demanded that they be "self-critical" and take "concrete measures to ensure that this does not happen again."
