Shocking escalation in après-ski bar: Bouncer sends guest to hospital!

In a dramatic incident in Styria, an après-ski bar recently experienced a serious case of physical violence. A bouncer who tried to defend himself against a drunk guest ended up in court after his actions had fatal consequences for the 29-year-old guest. According to prosecutor Christina Eixelsberger, the victim suffered massive head injuries that will severely affect him for the rest of his life. “He cannot walk long distances and has massive limitations on the left side of his body,” emphasized Eixelsberger, while pointing out the serious consequences of the attack, such as Krone.at reported.

The escalation in front of the bar

The incident occurred when the 29-year-old tried to sneak a cigarette into the après-ski bar. The bouncer who overpowered him as he was leading him out vehemently denied the allegations of violence and said he felt provoked. “Did you feel provoked?” asked Judge Doris Schmidhofer, to which the defendant replied “Yes”. However, witnesses reported a shocking sight: the victim bleeding from his mouth and ears after his head hit the asphalt, which the prosecutor described as traumatic for those present with the "sound of the impact." The trial was postponed indefinitely because several witnesses failed to appear.

Another incident in Wildeshausen

Similar incidents have also drawn attention to other discos in Germany, such as the case at the Wildeshausen discotheque “5 Elements”, which was recently heard in the district court. Two bouncers were charged with grievous bodily harm after choking and hitting a guest. The 25-year-old who suffered the beating only remembered fragments of the incident because he was also heavily intoxicated. The judge made it clear that this was not a trivial crime, and they ultimately agreed on a fine of 450 euros for each of the two accused, which would be donated to an association.
