In the heart of Dnipro, near a crowded establishment, a small group of men opened fire after a fight broke out inside the building. According to the Dnipropetrovsk Regional Police, the conflict spilled out onto the street, where the perpetrators fired non-lethal pistols at employees of a security agency. The incident occurred on August 14 at approximately 10:45 p.m. on Magdeburg Law Street in the Shevchenkivskyi District.
