Lövöldözés és garázdaság miatt hat embert állítottak elő Örkényben, miután elfajult egy vita két család között — közölte a Pest Megyei Rendőr-főkapitányság.

A közlemény szerint a két család között szerda hajnalban alakult ki a vita. Egy 28 éves férfi ezt követően délután autóval elment a család házához, ahol rövid szóváltás után tégla- és betondarabokat, köveket dobáltak a gépkocsijára. Az autó utasa emiatt elővett egy gáz-riasztópisztolyt, sorozatban lövéseket adott le, majd a kocsit hátrahagyva elfutott a helyszínről, és egy közeli ismerőséhez menekült, akit megkért, hogy tüntesse el a fegyvert – írták.

Hozzátették: a lövöldözésben senki nem sérült meg, a megdobált jármű oldalsó és hátsó szélvédője betört.

A rendőrök a helyszínre érkezve hat örkényi lakost állítottak elő, közülük két nőt és három férfit gyanúsítottként hallgattak ki. A Dabasi Rendőrkapitányság csoportosan, felfegyverkezve elkövetett garázdaság gyanúja miatt indított eljárást ellenük.
