Sevilla Ultras Arrested After Security Guard Assault

On March 21st, in the vicinity of the Ramón Sanchez-Pizjuán stadium, three Sevilla fans assaulted a security guard, leaving him in serious condition.

“On that day, a security employee, who was performing his duties outside a shopping center near the stadium, was brutally attacked by three Sevilla FC fans (members of the ultra group Biris Norte). The victim, who was setting up a security device to prevent damage to the premises, was initially reprimanded by these fans and then attacked, receiving punches and kicks until he had to be assisted by his security colleagues from the commercial establishment,” read a statement from the Spanish police.

The victim sustained serious injuries, and the suspects were taken to the police station, where they await trial.
