Fürth (dpa / lby) – A dispute between dog owners in Fürth escalated so much that a man ended up in the hospital with a fractured skull. The later injured, a 73-year-old, had tried to catch his runaway husky on Tuesday last week, who had run towards a stranger and his dog. As the police announced on Monday, a dispute broke out between the two dog owners shortly afterwards. The senior was knocked to the ground by the other dog owner and suffered several fractures on his head. The attacker then fled with his dog. The police assume that the perpetrator was upset about the behavior of the husky.
