Two Men Badly Injured In Gang Fight

PENANG, March 6 (Bernama) -- Two men were badly injured in a gang fight at a restaurant in Air Itam here early Saturday.

Penang police chief Datuk Wira Ayub Yaakob said in the 12.30am incident, one of the man was injured on the neck while the other had severe bodily injuries.

He said initial investigations revealed that the victims had an argument with a Myanmar man before the fight broke out between their respective gangs.

He said one Myanmar man and 14 local men, aged between 18 and 30, were arrested so far to facilitate further investigation into the case.

The police were tracking down seven other Myanmar men believed to be involved in the fight, he added.
