Series of attacks in St. Petersburg

On the night of August 12-13, two attacks were carried out in one of the districts of St. Petersburg.

Both attacks were carried out on Staro-Petergofsky Prospekt. In the park near the house number 16, two young people and a girl began to molest a man of Asian appearance, and then stabbed him with a knife. The man died before police arrived.

A little later, on the same avenue near house 46, several people attacked a woman. The victim is in intensive care. The reasons for the attack on the woman were not reported, but since both scenes are nearby, it can be assumed that the attacks were carried out by one group.
