Banda star Lupillo Rivera‘s ex wife went ballistic on his current wife earlier this week, striking the latter multiple times in the head and leaving her injured. Police arrived on the scene and promptly arrested María Gorola, the ex wife, but she was later released on $500 bail.

Lupillo’s publicist sent VL the following statement in Spanish:

Lupillo and Mayeli would like to express their deep appreciation for the support received during this difficult week. Neither of them will offer any statements about the incident because of the discretion that a case that is still under investigation demands. In spite of being a public figure, the priority of Lupillo is the weell-being of his wife and children and he understands that any statement that he can make might hurt his children more. We ask everyone that this issue be respected as private and person.

If you need more information please contact the Long Beach Police Department.

On the other hand, Lupillo’s ex, the accused, says that the “incident has been manipulated to show the other person as the victim.”
