A fight in Paceville in the early morning left a Brazilian woman seriously injured, with the police sent to control the situation also getting involved.

Police were called to Triq Santa Rita at 2.45am after reports reached them of a fight between the 33-year-old woman, who lives in San Ġwann, and a 24-yaer-old Syrian who lives in Birkirkara.

The woman had to be hospitalised due to the severity of her injuries.

The Syrian was arrested but became aggressive, slightly injuring the constable who tried to control him, and threatening the other police, according to the police report.

Investigations are still underway.
