The group of young people between the ages of 15 and 18 harassed the 17-year-old in the city park shortly after midnight. Shortly afterwards they punched the victim in the face.

The bag contained, among other things, a charging cable, a power bank, a mobile phone and a passport. The 17-year-old immediately alerted the police. A short time later, the four suspects were arrested by the officers. Two of them were taken to a prison, while the other two were reportedly at large.
