An American man in his 30s has been booked for allegedly assaulting two U.S. soldiers while intoxicated, police said Tuesday.
The man is suspected of punching two U.S. Forces Korea service members in their 20s on a street in Pyeongtaek, some 60 kilometers south of Seoul, on Sunday, local police said.
The assailant reportedly told investigators he did not know the victims but was angered when they ignored him and used profanity against him.
Police said they are investigating the details of the incident.
