A 20-year-old Colombian young man was arrested Sunday morning after trying to slaughter the owner of an Elf Street after-hour - at number 109 - and a customer who was currently at the establishment. Both suffered minor cuts and the owner was spared very little from a deep neck wound, according to several witnesses. The detainee is charged with a crime of attempted murder and another of injuries. The arrested person was seized a knife that cuts meat 30 centimeters long and 15 centimeters long .

The Municipal Police has denounced the premises several times and the neighbors also assure that they are fed up and tired of the problems generated by this after , which opens at seven in the morning and that attracts dozens of young people when all nightclubs are closed.

The alleged aggressor was at the premises with several friends. Witnesses say he was very drunk and that, around nine o'clock in the morning, he began to claim a mobile phone from the waiters. He claimed that they had taken it away and came to threaten the goalkeepers. He was then expelled from the establishment without being able to retrieve his cell phone.

It is suspected that after being thrown he went home and took from his kitchen a professional knife to cut meat. He arrived at the premises and entered it. He went to the owner and threatened him. He then took out the knife and threw several stabs at him. Two workers and a client pounced on the alleged aggressor, who entrenched himself inside the premises. Finally, it was reduced by several people. The owner of the after, according to witnesses, was saved from suffering a cut in the neck by turning his head. Another client suffered a slight cut in the hand. Both injured were treated by Samur doctors, a spokesman for Madrid Emergency confirmed yesterday.

The place where the events occurred is under the police focus. In recent months it has been denounced several times. The owner says he has a license for a bar and that he opens for breakfast. However, the agents say that alcohol is sold and that the music plays at full volume. Also, an inspection also found narcotic substances, according to police sources.

In the last year, in the surroundings of the premises two fights have been registered with the result of five wounded, according to health sources. The neighbors say that they have been fighting for a long time to close the establishment that works as an illegal after . "The Municipal Police come and denounce them, but for now the activity continues to our misfortune," said the owner of a nearby business.
