Two men were injured, one of them grievously, in a fight in Paceville last night.

The police said they were informed that two men had been attacked by another in Triq San Ġorġ, St Julian’s at 12.30am.

They said that a 26-year-old Lithuanian allegedly used a bottle to attack the victims - two Libyans aged 26 and 37 who live in Birżebbuġa and St Paul’s Bay, respectively.

They were taken to Mater Dei Hospital by ambulance.

While the 26-year-old was slightly injured, the older man suffered grievous injuries. The aggressor was not injured.

He has been arrested and is being questioned by the police.
