Police called after schnitzel row turns violent in Germany

Police officers were called to settle a schnitzel-related dispute in southern Germany after a man assaulted his neighbour for allegedly pounding meat for the dish too loudly, reported dpa.

Police said on Sunday that the 61-year-old resident of an apartment block in the town of Geiselhöring went to the amateur cook's flat on Saturday evening, insulted him and slapped him in the face.

Officers were called to the scene, where they recorded the assault and separated the two neighbours.
