Brutal family showdown in Érd – one man dead – VIDEO

On Thursday night, at around eight pm in Érd, two groups had a dispute which ended up in a violent confrontation where the two parties seriously injured each other. The members of both families started hitting one another with sticks, stones, iron pipes, spades, and knives, and there have even been several shots fired from gas and alarm guns, but these did not cause any injuries. A few minutes later, the showdown ended, and all the perpetrators fled just as soon as they appeared.

The Pest County Police Headquarters detained no fewer than 13 people in total after the brawl. A 36-year-old man is suspected of homicide and another 12 men with the crime of armed breach of peace in groups. All 13 people detained were injured. Many of them suffered stabbed, cut, or bruised injuries. Police have taken them all into custody and are initiating their arrest.

It is evident from the CCTV footage of the Police that the two families threw things at each other and beat each other with sticks, iron pipes and spades. It is also clear from the footage that they continued to be aggressive towards their target even after that person fell to the ground. The police said at their press conference on Friday that

four of the victims were in need of immediate medical assistance when their officers arrived at the scene of this brutal showdown.

According to 24, in the aftermath of the merciless clash, a 50-year-old man died of his injuries before they could help him, two were in life-threatening condition, three were seriously injured, and seven were slightly injured. According to the report of Gábor Latorovszky, Deputy Chief of Criminal Police, the fight broke out between a family from Pest County and a family from Fejér County, probably due to a previous unresolved grievance.
