Livestock Dispute Turns Into Bloody Clash: Tractor Driven at People

A dispute broke out between two families in Turkey’s Malatya Province over livestock grazing. What began as a verbal argument quickly turned into a mass brawl. The sides attacked each other with stones and sticks.

As the fight intensified, one of the participants drove a tractor toward the people standing nearby. Footage shows two men jumping aside at the last second and narrowly avoiding being run over.

A village guard who fell from the tractor during the incident suffered serious injuries. He was taken to hospital by ambulance.

Law enforcement agencies have launched an investigation into the incident in Malatya. The actions of the participants and the tractor driver are expected to receive a legal assessment.
