Clash during a Kreisliga game in Gelsenkirchen culminates in a violent altercation - Chaos erupts in Gelsenkirchen as crowd clashes during final moments of match
In an unexpected turn of events, a local soccer league game in Gelsenkirchen was marred by a mass brawl on Sunday. The game between BV Horst-Süd and SV Hansa Buer Scholven was abruptly halted when players from both teams, along with spectators, became embroiled in a violent altercation.
Reports suggest that approximately 30 to 40 people were involved in the brawl, with many exchanging punches and kicks. Bottles and sticks were used as weapons, leading to a chaotic scene at the stadium.
Two individuals were injured during the brawl and required immediate medical attention. The remaining players were sent off after the police arrived, and the game was subsequently abandoned.
The police have launched an investigation into the incident, focusing on dangerous bodily harm. They are also looking into the exact sequence of events that led to the brawl.
