Late last night, a parking dispute in Nuremberg got completely out of hand - one person had to be hospitalized with multiple lacerations.
Nuremberg – Emotions often run high when driving.
Patience in particular is often a rare commodity.
The police reported on Sunday, December 4th, about a dispute in Nuremberg's traffic, which got completely out of hand.
It was only about a parking space - in the end, however, one person had to be hospitalized with multiple lacerations.

The argument continued to escalate and eventually culminated in a physical altercation.
Three men attacked their 23-year-old opponent, according to the police.
Pepper spray was also used.
The result of the fight: "The man suffered several lacerations and respiratory problems.
He was taken to a nearby hospital," police said.
