Two men injured in attack in Gelsenkirchen

Two 18-year-old men were injured in a dispute between two groups on Buerer Straße in the Horst district of Gelsenkirchen on Friday evening. A group of four men is alleged to have first physically attacked the pair and sprayed them with pepper spray. One of the victims was then stabbed in the back with a blade and taken to hospital by ambulance. A life-threatening injury was ruled out. The other victim reported facial pain but did not require medical treatment. The group of suspects fled, and police are searching for them.
