After the riots during a men's handball match between HSV Weinböhla and HSV Zwönitz, the victim is still being treated in hospital.

After the rioting by soccer fans at the men's handball Saxon League match between HSV Weinböhla and Zwönitzer HSV (38:28), the victim is still being treated in hospital. According to dpa information, the condition of the 17-year-old will continue to be monitored. Initial reports that he had lost teeth in the attack were not confirmed.

According to police reports on Sunday, 16 visiting fans, who are part of the ultra-milieu of third-division soccer club FC Erzgebirge Aue, beat up a 17-year-old in front of the Nassauhalle because he was wearing a Dynamo Dresden scarf. The match was then interrupted.

The police, who came to the scene with a large contingent, arrested six suspects aged between 17 and 22. They are now being investigated on suspicion of breach of the peace and grievous bodily harm, among other things.
