According to the press release, a VAG employee carried out a ticket inspection on the U1 subway.
A young person (14) could not show a valid ticket, which is why his personal details should be recorded.
The 14-year-old refused and tried to escape from the subway.
The inspector prevented the escape by holding the boy's arm.
"Then the 14-year-old bit him in the forearm.
The injury required hospital treatment," police said.
