“All the men who were clarifying relations are not Lithuanians, possibly Belarusians, Ukrainians, or other nationalities spread east of Lithuania. Why the men decided to exchange blows is still unclear,” the mentioned portal writes.
The Communications Department of the Vilnius County Chief Police Commissariat informed 15min that officers are already conducting a pre-trial investigation for Public Order Violation following this incident. The police recorded that “Toyota” and “Kia” passenger cars were damaged in the yard.
“Six are fighting. No one is lying down”
The police received a call on Sunday after 9 p.m., with the incident location given as a landmark: an apartment building marked with number 20 on Musninkų Street.
“Six are fighting near the house. No one is lying down,” the witness who became a reporter urged the 112 emergency services briefly but informatively.
Several patrols arriving found the men still in conflict. The officers laid them down on the ground in the yard. All of them were detained after police reinforcements arrived.

Detained men aged 22–33
The police registered the personal data of the detained young men, their birth years are public:
- born 1997
- born 2005
- born 1995
- born 1999
- born 1993
- born 1998
Police protocols state that the detainees are suspected of demonstrating disrespect to others and the environment through insolent behavior and other actions in a public place, disturbing public peace and order. This is considered a Public Order Violation.
In reality, the participants in the fight face fines. However, they may also have to compensate claims likely to be made by the owners of both damaged vehicles.
The police do not emphasize the nationalities of the suspects, as Lithuanian laws apply equally to both our country’s citizens and foreigners.
