Two men were injured in a four-person brawl in Armier on Friday which left one of the victims nursing wounds allegedly caused by an iron bar.
The police said the argument took place at 11am on Christmas Day.
It started between the victims - a 36-year-old man from Birkirkara and a 47-year-old man from Qormi- but two women - a 49-year-old from Qormi and a 33-year-old from Birżebbuġa also got involved.
One of the women allegedly grievously injured the 36-year-old man when she hit him with an iron rod. The 47-year-old was slightly injured.
The police are investigating.
