Man Utd 'hold talks' with Brighton star over surprise transfer despite January move
Manchester United are looking to strengthen Ruben Amorim's squad this summer and they could be in the market for another full-back despite already adding Patrick Dorgu earlier in the year Manchester United have held talks with the camp of Brighton star Pervis Estupinan. The Red Devils appear to be interested in signing the full-back who is also drawing interest from AC Milan this summer. Brighton have already signed Maxim De Cuyper from Club Brugge this summer and as a result could be open to offers for Ecuador international Estupinan. The defender, 27, has two years remaining on his contract on the south coast. Estupinan has told the Seagulls he is open to a new challenge this summer and talkSPORT claim United have held discussions with the player's camp. While on international duty this summer Estupinan told El Canal Del Futbol that Brighton had given him freedom to make a decision. "The truth is they have been three years in Brighton with a lot of learning. But this will be a transfer market with a lot of movement. The club know that I would like to grow, that I would like to keep growing. 'The club have understood this. I've spoken to the club. The club have given me this bit of freedom to be able to make a decision. Now we will try to see better what is on the table and to see where we can go." Estupinan appears a surprising target for United who have already reinforced at left-back. In January the club added Patrick Dorgu from Lecce and the summer has seen the arrival of teenage star Diego Leon. The club are trying to offload Tyrell Malacia who spent time on loan at PSV last term. There also remains uncertainty over Luke Shaw's ability to maintain his fitness. Paraguayan youngster Leon has aspirations of breaking into Ruben Amorim's plans however. Earlier this year he rubbished the notion of automatically gooing out on loan. "I'm really happy, I think every player dreams of this," Leon told Paraguayan press. "When you're a professional, you have to adapt quickly, it is a massive opportunity. "Everyone thinks I'll go out on loan, but I don't have that mindset. I'm going to kill it in pre-season and within one or two games, I'll already be playing with them."

Man accused of fatal crash that killed jogger, in critical condition after hospital clash
A driver accused of running down a Shenandoah father out for a jog has been unconscious and hospitalized since police struck him with Tasers two weeks ago as he thrashed about trying to get out of bed and was sedated, the family's attorney said this week. In a letter last week to his mother last week, the hospital reported that Andres Roberto Fiallo Estupinan's condition had declined so rapidly that he was in 'critical' condition. He had been initially admitted for an foot injury after police say he fled from the scene of the horrific hit-and-run. Attorney Bradley Horenstein said police and hospital personnel wouldn't allow him to see his client for a week after he was admitted to Jackson Memorial Hospital. The lawyer said he was finally able to visit Estupinan after a judge ordered police to allow him behind the curtain of the hospital's Intensive Care Unit on June 16. Estupinian has not yet been formally charged but witnesses and police say he was behind the wheel of a Volkswagen Jetta that struck jogger Andrew Loretta, 50, so severely on the evening of June 10 that it severed his legs. Estupinan is accused of then careening his car into an ice cream truck and other vehicles. After the crash, he was hospitalized with a broken foot. Since then his condition has deteriorated rapidly. Jackson Health System sent Estupinan's mother in Chile a letter last week saying she should rush to her son's bedside. The letter provided to the Miami Herald and signed by the hospital's Trauma Intensive Care Unit, says Catalina Lourdes Estupinan Saltos should be considered for a humanitarian visa because her son is in 'critical' condition. Why Estupinan's condition turned so grave is a mystery. Miami Police have refused to discuss the case. They won't say if officers used Tasers to subdue the suspect. They won't even admit an officer has been sentry outside Estupinan's curtained room since he was admitted to Jackson on June 10. As for his client's condition, Horenstein said 'I don't know if it's because he was Tasered. I don't know if it's because he was sedated. But it's alarming for sure. He went in with a broken ankle and nothing else.' Horenstein said when he was finally permitted to see Estupinan, he was stunned. A thick hose was inserted down his throat and bandages across his face held it in place. The attorney said he was unable to communicate with his client and that when he visited again later in the week, nothing had changed. 'It's an image that sticks in my head,' the attorney said. The sudden death of Loretta, a married telecommunications executive with two teenage children, has dazed Coral Way neighbors and devastated his family. Friends and family said his passions were soccer and jogging, that he moved to Miami from California in 2000 and that he spoke English, Spanish and Portugese. Family members around the state called Loretta 'selfless' and said he was always there for anyone who needed help. 'I can't speak enough about what a great leader he was for his family. We're all really hurting,' said cousin John Loretta, who lives in Kendall. 'Everybody's heartbroken. It's still very fresh,' said another cousin, St. Petersburg resident Kristin Joy Loretta. A GoFundme page set up for Andrew Loretta had raised more than $188,000 as of Wednesday. In a post on the site his wife said she was 'heartbroken.' 'It all just makes me cry in a bittersweet way - to feel so much love while in so much pain - is the most overwhelming thing I've ever experienced,' she wrote. Residents tackled suspect in nearby park Estupinan, a 36-year-old Chilean, is in the U.S. on a work visa, his attorney said. Horenstein said his client recently graduated from Boston University with a Master's degree and was living in Coral Gables. Horenstein said he had a job - though couldn't identify what type of work it was - two weeks ago when police say he crashed into Loretta just before sunset near the corner of Southwest 21st Avenue and 18th Street. The crash so violent, police said, that Loretta was thrown more than 170 feet. Witnesses say Estupinan then veered his car into an ice cream truck and two other vehicles before getting out and running. He was tackled to the ground in nearby Shenandoah Park by residents who witnessed the incident and who detained him until police arrived. Estupinan's arrest report that day said he was speeding and that his driver's license had expired. It also said he was charged with two felonies, leaving the scene of a deadly crash and leaving the scene of a crash involving serious bodily injury. Despite the arrest affidavit, a Miami Police source this week said Estupinan will not be officially charged until they determine he's recovered sufficiently or is released from the hospital. Did mental lapse lead to scrap at hospital? Though police won't discuss the chain of events that led to Estupinan's condition, witness and written accounts indicate he may have been suffering an emotional breakdown before the fatal crash and the confrontation at the hospital that left him in his current state. In the weeks leading up to the crash that ended Loretta's life, Estupinan was receiving telemedical psychological help from a doctor in Chile, according to Horenstein and his medical records. The attorney said two days before the crash, a cousin tried to get the suspect in the hit-and-run some help at Coral Gables Hospital, which ultimately released him. 'The psychiatrist felt he needed to see a doctor,' said Horenstein, who added his client might have been depressed but that his family said he didn't appear distressed or suicidal. A five-page psychiatric evaluation of Estupinan from June 14 says the patient became so agitated at the hospital that he tore out his line, jumped out of the bed naked while handcuffed and swore before he was 'tased by PD [Miami police officers] multiple times which did not have any effect.' Estupinan was so disturbed, a doctor wrote, that he thrashed himself against a vent on a wall and set off a hospital alarm. 'Finally the patient was held down, given IM meds and subsequently intubated,' a psychiatrist wrote. Medical doctor Dominque Musselman said in at attempt to subdue Estupinan he was given ketamine, fentanyl and midazolam introvenously. The drugs are typically used for sedation and pain management. The doctor said it worked, but that Estupinan became angry and threw himself around repeatedly as doctor's tried to wean him from the sedation. The report also says that because of abnormal heart activity, high blood pressure and paranoia, Estupinan had been taking three powerful drugs generally used to for mental lapses. Valproate is used to stop seizures. Sebroquel manages hallucinations and risperidone is used to treat bipolar disorder and schizophrenia and general regulates mood swings and behavior. Horenstein said in the two weeks since he was hospitalized and charged, Estupinan hasn't spoken to anyone or been before a judge. The attorney said the hospital called his client's father Wednesday to inform him that they were about to perform a tracheotomy on his son. 'The system is broken and civil rights are illusory if this is how a defendant can be treated while in police custody in this country,' said Horenstein. 'It's terrifying that this can happen in America in 2025.'

She reportedly did of her injuries in hospital. 'According to what we have been able to verify, he indeed made some threats and there were complaints against him,' Col. William Quintero, commander of the Metropolitan Police of Cucuta, told local media, per CNN . 'We are taking all urgent actions to establish what happened and bring those responsible for this act to justice.' Col. Leonardo Capacho, commander of District One of the Cúcuta Metropolitan Police, said in a statement to Noticias Caracol that the suspect could be Estupinan's ex-partner, whom she previously reported for domestic violence. 'It could be an alleged femicide, since she filed several complaints for domestic violence in previous years, but that is a matter of investigation,' he detailed. Estupinan was set to receive a reward of 30 million pesos (C$2,169,000) after winning a domestic violence case against her ex the day before. Alejandra Vera, director of Mujer Denuncia y Muévete, a women's rights organization, told the outlet that the victim's ex 'stalked her and abused her, and she reported it to the authorities.' She filed a complaint, asked for help, and 'requested full protection and security' so she could 'enjoy a life free of violence,' Vera added. 'The Colombian state has failed this young woman.' Estupinan's death comes days after Valeria Marquez, a 23-year-old beauty influencer, was fatally shot while livestreaming from her salon in Jalisco, Mexico, on May 13. Marquez appeared to have been speaking to a delivery man off camera during the livestream when she was shot once in the chest and once in the head and collapsed. State authorities said they were investigating Marquez's death as a possible femicide, an extreme case of gender-based violence common in Latin America where a woman is attacked due to her gender.
