In the course of the dispute, three Romanian citizens grabbed dangerous objects and attacked the Ukrainians, the police said. Three people were injured and had to be taken to a Rostock clinic. Two of the three suspects have been identified and arrested. The criminal police have started investigations on suspicion of serious breach of the peace and dangerous bodily harm.
