Greek police are investigating the death of an 82-year-old man after a fight at a beach resort area near Athens. Local reports say the dispute broke out on Sunday at Vouliagmeni, on the Athenian riviera, after the older man became involved in an argument with other beachgoers.
Authorities report the incident begins with a disagreement over a sun lounger and the apparent scarcity of loungers. The 82-year-old had a dispute with a 76-year-old man and a 21-year-old woman, which escalated into a scuffle between the two men. The 82-year-old was taken to hospital after being badly injured, and he is later declared dead.
Multiple outlets cite police statements and Greek media reporting. They agree on the location, the age of those involved, that the conflict centres on a sunbed, that arrests are made, and that investigators are determining what led to the fatal outcome. The reported details focus on the initial argument and the ensuing physical confrontation.
