A is accused of repeatedly punching B (in his 50s) in the face around 8 p.m. the previous day in front of a bar in Daein-dong, Dong-gu, Gwangju.


He also damaged items and flowerpots at several bars and inns in the Daein-dong area on multiple occasions.


After being arrested on the spot following a resident's report, he caused a disturbance and damaged property in the detention center as well.



The police determined that since A committed this crime during a probation period for a similar offense, there is a high risk of reoffending and fleeing, and plan to request an arrest warrant.
