A woman in Sjöbo has been assaulted after her neighbors became angry that she cut the grass, the police write on their website.

The woman has been taken to hospital with still unclear injuries. A man and a woman are suspected of assault.

It is a neighborhood feud that has been going on for a longer time. Today when the plaintiff cuts the grass, the neighbors get irritated by it and initially one argues verbally. Then one also hits the plaintiff in the face and throws her to the ground, says Sara Andersson, press spokesperson at the police, to Aftonbladet.

The incident occurred early on Saturday evening. According to Sydsvenskan the injured woman herself alerted the police.
