Overview
- Isaías Trejo Lara, 19, suffered a severe medical emergency during the June 30 celebration at Paseo de la Reforma and died hours later in hospital from status epilepticus, convulsions and digestive bleeding that led to cardiorespiratory arrest.
- Family-shared security video and testimony show three companions leaving Isaías unconscious on the street while a separate man is seen taking his backpack, which left him unidentified when he arrived at the hospital.
- The Fiscalía General de Justicia de la Ciudad de México (FGJCDMX) has opened a criminal investigation and is reviewing C5 and private videos, witness interviews and other evidence; no arrests or formal detentions have been reported so far.
- Relatives accuse authorities of informational negligence after initial misreporting of age and say the Servicio Médico Forense has not returned Isaías’s clothing and personal effects, fueling demands for transparency.
- The broader crowd of about 1.4 million people that gathered for the win created severe congestion that led to three other deaths by asphyxia, raising public scrutiny of crowd control, emergency response and event operations.
