Regenstauf - A man who, according to the police, wanted to stop the tractors was injured during a protest by farmers in the Upper Palatinate.
The 68-year-old stood between the vehicles on Thursday (February 29) in Regenstauf during the protesting farmers' tour.
His goal was to stop the tractors and have a conversation with the participants, the police said on Friday.
While some tractors stopped, others drove past on the side, causing the man to be injured in the foot by a tractor.
