The Civil Guard of Guadalajara has arrested four people aged between 18 and 21 years old in the cities of Alcalá de Henares and Badajoz, belonging to the violent youth group known as “Magallanes 02”, linked to the Trinitarios and attributed to their involvement in several brawls.
Operation Explorer originated from events that occurred last May 2024 when a young man was stabbed to death at the train station in Azuqueca de Henares (Guadalajara), and the perpetrator was arrested at that time, as reported in a press release by the Civil Guard of Guadalajara.
In light of these circumstances, the Civil Guard initiated an investigation to uncover the causes of the confrontation, managing to clarify several violent episodes stemming from the rivalry between the “Magallanes 02” gangs of Alcalá de Henares and the violent youth group “N4N” of Azuqueca de Henares (Guadalajara).

The hostilities between both groups date back to September 2023 when an attack occurred at the train station in Alcalá de Henares by members of “Magallanes 02” against “N4N” members, resulting in severe injuries to two individuals from “N4N”, with one being stabbed in the thigh and the other in the chest and neck, with the clear intention of causing death.
Later, in December 2023, a similar assault took place at the Torrejón de Ardoz train station (Madrid), where one of the now-detained members of “Magallanes 02” caused injuries to a young man from Azuqueca de Henares affiliated with N4N, who was also stabbed in the thigh.

The week before the homicide in Azuqueca de Henares, during the patron saint festivities in Meco (Madrid), another clash occurred between the two groups, where they showed up with machetes and baseball bats.
At that time, it was discovered that a person was stabbed and had to be rushed to the Alcalá de Henares hospital with a guarded prognosis.
The four arrested individuals, who played a key role in the aforementioned assaults, have been handed over to the Judiciary, facing charges of attempted homicide, belonging to a Criminal Group, and causing injuries.
