Another incident on the same day showed that not only animals can be difficult. Shortly after 8 p.m. there was a dispute over a seat at the Starnberg North station between two Syrians in the regional express in Munich. In this incident, the 25-year-old was hit by a 33-year-old, which led to a wrangling in which the glasses of the younger man were damaged.
