The family of 12-year-old Angelina, shot in the head by a stray bullet during Christmas celebrations in Morón, reports she is in critical but stable condition in intensive care. They thanked medical staff, requested privacy, and noted ongoing investigation into suspects and evidence.
Two days after 12-year-old Angelina was struck in the head by a stray bullet amid Christmas festivities in Villa Sarmiento, Morón, on December 25, 2025, her family released a statement on December 27 updating her status. She remains in the ICU at Sanatorio de La Trinidad in Ramos Mejía, with a 'critical but stable' condition and reserved prognosis from the firearm injury.
The family expressed gratitude to the medical team and sanatorium for their care, and to the press for coverage. They requested 'utmost respect for the family's privacy' and stated no interviews will be given, with future updates via official channels.
Prosecutor Valeria Courtade's investigation continues, pursuing leads on a possible neighborhood suspect or nearby armed group. Key evidence includes security footage capturing a child reacting to a loud noise and ballistic analysis pointing to a .40 or 9mm bullet. No arrests have been made, amid concerns over celebratory gunfire.
