  "account": "At 7:20am on November 15th, a security guard working at Sala Divas, a 24-hour adult entertainment venue in Malaga, Spain, was shot in the chest. The assailants, several people, opened fire before fleeing the scene. The victim, a 49-year-old man, took a bullet to his torso. He wore a medallion on a chain around his neck, which likely deflected some of the bullet's force. Emergency services were alerted through the 112 line, and the National Police, Local Police, and medical personnel responded swiftly. The man was treated on the scene and then transported to the hospital. Police investigators believe the medallion played a role in protecting the guard. So far, no arrests have been made, and the attackers remain at large. Sala Divas, located in a commercial zone rather than the city center's nightlife strip, is known for its round-the-clock operation and is more of a \"gentlemen's-style club\" than a typical discoteca. Anyone with information is urged to contact the National Police.",
