The City Council of sa Pobla has condemned the alleged homophobic assault suffered by two people during the early hours of last November 7th at the town's Plaça de la Constitució and has expressed its support and solidarity with those affected. As reported by the newspaper Última Hora, the events occurred after Alejandro and his partner, Máximo, kissed at a bar on the square. According to Alejandro's account, two men attacked them without any prior confrontation. Máximo suffered a lip wound that required eight stitches at Son Espases hospital, while Alejandro suffered contusions and discomfort in his shoulder and hand.
