Brutal attack in Budapest: One man stabbed in the neck with a knife

On Saturday afternoon, chaos erupted at a busy location in Budapest. Six people were involved, and one of them used a knife, injuring another person. The injured person and two friends were taken to the hospital, while the police quickly arrested the three others involved in the attack in Budapest.

An escalated dispute

Index reports that on Saturday afternoon, in Örs Vezér Square, a dispute between six men escalated into a physical altercation. The situation turned dire when one of them pulled out a knife, injuring another. The sight of blood caused panic among bystanders, leading to a rush to safety. Three injured individuals were subsequently transported to the hospital.

Reports indicate that two groups of three individuals started shouting at each other at a bus stop. Initially, neighbours heard raised voices, but the gravity of the situation became apparent as they saw the wounded man. A witness has told Tények:

He had blood all over his chest, so we thought he was either beaten so badly that he was bleeding everywhere, or possibly stabbed. In hindsight, I heard that this could have happened.

Attack in Budapest

According to Tények, there was massive panic as people witnessed the stabbed man bleeding heavily. Multiple individuals immediately called for an ambulance. Soon after, two patrol cars and several ambulances rushed to the scene. The man who was stabbed and his wounded friends were taken to hospital immediately. Right after the attack, the man who pulled out the knife and the other two men fled the scene.

Police suspected they might have boarded one of the HÉV trains, leading to several trains being detained and some stopped mid-route for inspection. Simultaneously, an extensive search for the perpetrators was launched in other areas.
