Turkish-Serbian fight in touristic resort ends with firebomb attack

AYDIN

A fight between a Turkish tourist and a Serbian group in the southwestern resort of Kuşadası has ended with a firebomb attack and an arrest. 

A Turkish citizen, who was holidaying in Kuşadası, argued with a Serbian tourist group who stayed in the hotel late July 29, according to local media reports.

The quarrel soon turned into a fight between both sides who were under the influence of alcohol. The hotel staff stopped the fight, but the Turkish man reportedly went to a nearby gas station and made firebombs out of two empty bottles of beer.

The man threw the firebombs at the bus that was parked in front of the hotel with the Serbian group inside. The ensuing fire was put out quickly and the assailant was detained by the police as he attempted to flee the scene.

No one was injured in the attack and the bus only had minor damage.
