An 18-year-old girl was stabbed in the face with scissors during a fight outside a nightclub in Rosario, Argentina, but her injuries are not serious.

An 18-year-old girl was injured during a fight that broke out early Saturday morning outside a nightclub located on Urquiza al 1800 in the Talleres neighborhood of Rosario. The conflict reportedly stemmed from a prior altercation inside the venue and escalated onto the street, at which point one of the participants used scissors to stab the other. The incident occurred around 5 AM, resulting in the victim, identified by initials M.L., receiving stab wounds to her skull, cheekbone, and abdomen.

Emergency services, specifically the Integrated Emergency Health System (SIES), responded promptly to the scene and provided assistance to the injured teenager.
