A young man is attacked and injured in Dresden. The police investigate two men from the right-wing scene as suspects.

After an attack on a 19-year-old in Dresden, "Soko Rex" is investigating two suspected neo-Nazis. The 36 and 41-year-old men allegedly attacked the young man on a street at the end of July and seriously injured him in the face, according to the Dresden public prosecutor's office.

The victim can apparently be classified as left-wing. The "Soko Rex" is responsible for investigating right-wing extremist crimes. The men are being investigated on suspicion of dangerous bodily harm.

The 41-year-old was arrested immediately after the attack near the scene. As there were two warrants for his arrest for other matters, he was taken to a correctional facility. The 36-year-old was identified as the second suspect. He was arrested at his home in Zwickau on Tuesday, according to the public prosecutor's office.
