Three people were arrested on Thursday evening after getting into a fight with one another near Larnaca’s Finikoudes beach, police said on Friday.

The fight broke out at around 7.15pm, with the police arriving on the scene soon after, reporting that there were “other young people who gathered and began to push each other”.

They then swiftly arrested the trio, aged 35, 21 and 17, with others said to have been involved in the “pushing” fleeing when more police officers arrived.

All three appeared in court on Friday, with the 35-year-old and 21-year-old being asked to hand over their travel documents and post bails of €2,000 each.

One of the two complied and was released, while the other did not submit any documents, and thus remains in custody.

The 17-year-old, being a minor, was ordered to submit his travel documents and sign to confirm his presence at a police station, before being released.

The police’s investigation into the matter is ongoing.
