Man stabbed in western German hotel

A man has been stabbed in a hotel in western Germany after a dispute over a noise complaint, reported dpa.

The early Sunday morning incident in the town of Rödermark, south of Frankfurt, saw four guests come to blows, police in nearby Offenbach said.

A 33-year-old man then stabbed a man of the same age in the upper body with a knife.

The victim was hospitalized, but police said his injuries are not life-threatening.

The suspect fled into a wooded area and was arrested shortly after. He was taken into custody by order of a public prosecutor along with a 29-year-old accomplice.
