MIA detained no troopers after fight with Dagestan natives in Moscow

Moscow law enforcers are establishing instigators of the fight between natives of Dagestan and veterans-air troopers, which burst out yesterday, on August 2, in the Russian capital. Information on the incident is scanty; therefore, authors of Internet diaries express their opinions on the possible course of events; many of them condemn the troopers' tradition of celebrating the annual Troopers' Day by mass alcohol drinking.

According to the latest data, after the fight two persons were hospitalized with craniocerebral traumas, and one more - with a stomach wound from a traumatic pistol.

Let us remind you that August 2 was the 80th anniversary of Airborne Troops; and the fight in Moscow burst out at 9:45 Moscow time in Manezhnaya Square. Earlier, a source in law enforcement bodies told the "Interfax" that Dagestan natives had instigated the fight, and a person with a piercing knife stomach wound was among those injured.

During the fight with veterans-troopers, over 20 natives of Dagestan were detained, a source in Moscow law enforcement bodies told the RIA "Novosti". According to his story, all the injured persons are veterans of the Airborne Troops.

"Now, the instigators of the incident and those who used traumatic pistols are established. There are no troopers among the detainees," said the source.

Let us note here that fights on the Troopers' Day are frequent; and often troopers themselves initiate them.
