A 19-year-old Ukrainian teen suffered a broken nose and spinal injuries after he was allegedly attacked by a group of youths in the Polish city of Wrocław shortly after speaking Ukrainian during a phone call with his mother, according to police and the victim's family.
The attack happened on Słodowa Island at about 8pm on 4 July while Volodymyr was spending the evening with his girlfriend and friends. After he answered a call from his mother in Ukrainian, a man who had allegedly overheard the conversation approached him and demanded his electronic cigarette. When Volodymyr refused, the man allegedly summoned a larger group, who attacked him.
