Disabled student and his colleague attacked in Novi Vinodolski: Both sought medical help

Two medical students were attacked at their workplace in Novi Vinodolski during the tourist season. The incident occurred while they were setting up a menu board between two hospitality venues. According to their account, a man verbally assaulted them outside the premises before dragging the 22-year-old student, who has a physical disability, into the interior of the establishment and hitting him in the head with his fist. The attacker claimed he did not hit the student because if he had, the student would have been dead and lying on the floor. Both victims sought medical attention at the KBC Rijeka hospital, where they received confirmation of both physical injuries and psychological effects. They reported that locals indicated the perpetrator might be connected to similar incidents and possibly related to a current minister through family ties. The police confirmed the incident was reported and that an investigation is ongoing. The students requested anonymity due to feeling unsafe and emphasized the importance of legal protection for all citizens regardless of social status or connections.

Bias read (Center): The article presents the incident objectively, citing the victims' accounts and the police response without overtly favoring any side. It mentions potential connections to a current minister but does not explicitly endorse or criticize this claim, maintaining a balanced tone.

Horror in New Vinodolsk: A man beats up two in a restaurant, one is a disabled person

Two medical students working at a hospitality venue in Novi Vinodolski during the tourist season reported being attacked by a man. The incident occurred while they were setting up a menu between two restaurant buildings. According to the students, the man verbally assaulted them before entering one of the establishments and assaulted a 22-year-old male with a physical disability, hitting him in the head. The attacker claimed he would have been dead if he had hit them, according to the students' account. Both victims sought medical assistance at KBC Rijeka, where they received confirmation of both physical injuries and psychological trauma. They also mentioned hearing from locals that the individuals involved were previously linked to similar incidents and had family ties to an active minister. The police confirmed the incident was reported and an investigation is ongoing.

Bias read (Progressive): The article frames the incident with potential political implications by mentioning the suspect's possible connections to an active minister and prior involvement in similar incidents. This suggests a narrative that could imply systemic issues or political influence, which leans left by highlighting
