According to the Changwon Jungbu Police Station in Gyeongnam on the 7th, a man in his 60s, Mr. A, was booked without detention after drinking approximately 270,000 won worth of alcohol and failing to pay the bill at a pub in Sangnam-dong, Seongsan-gu, Changwon City, around 9:50 PM on the 4th.

Mr. A caused a disturbance at the time, claiming the alcohol prices were too high, and assaulted a responding police officer by grabbing his neck with both hands.

The police have booked Mr. A without detention and are investigating the exact circumstances of the incident.
