Police are investigating all three on suspicion of dangerous bodily harm.

Overview

  • Police say the confrontation began Monday around 10:30 a.m. on Maximilianstraße after an 18- and a 28-year-old blocked a delivery vehicle outside a döner shop.
  • The fight escalated from punches to the use of a döner skewer taken from the delivery driver and a metal bar.
  • The delivery worker was treated in a Bayreuth hospital for injuries, and the other two men received medical care at the scene.
