Actually, a group of young people just wanted to sit and swim in peace on the Isar - but at some point the police had to move in.

Munich – As the Munich police officers reported, eight men and women between the ages of 20 and 27 were sitting together on the banks of the Isar in Haidhausen on Tuesday evening at around 9:15 p.m.

A 22-year-old woman from Munich went swimming in the Isar in Munich*.

Two men on the other bank commented on this with whistles.

When the men got no response, they freaked out and threw rocks at the group.

The young Isar bather was hit in the leg and slightly injured.

The group called the police.

Several patrols drove off and arrested the men (20 and 22 years old).

These are Ukrainian citizens who had fake Romanian passports with them.
