A U.S. national in his 30s was arrested after assaulting two American soldiers in Pyeongtaek while intoxicated. The incident happened around 6 a.m. on June 21 in Sinjang-dong. Police say the suspect, identified only as “A,” punched two male U.S. soldiers in their 20s after claiming they ignored and swore at him. A video of the attack spread rapidly online, showing the large-built suspect kicking one soldier, threatening a woman, and punching another in the face, knocking him unconscious.
