The young man brandished his sword, threatening staff and patrons, and hurling obscenities. Security guards intervened, but the assailant attacked one of them, severely injuring his hand.
The sword-wielding man escaped, allegedly under the influence of intoxicants. Police arrived promptly, launched an investigation, and are currently working to apprehend the deceased individual’s accomplices, if any.
