This week, Lithuanian football fans heard shocking news – in Alytus, "Dainava" legionnaire Obi Jeremiah Chinonso was attacked and brutally stabbed.

Fortunately, the Nigerian was rescued by a civically-minded passerby and later released to recover at home after undergoing surgeries.

The portal tv3.lt learned about and described the perpetrator who lost his mind.

He is a graduate of Alytus "Jotvingiai" gymnasium, who managed to attend two classes on the day of the attack.

According to the school's community, the 18-year-old student, who lived in an orderly family, was calm and did not stand out with his behavior in school.

However, in the last month, the attacker often skipped classes.

The Varėna court allowed the criminal to be detained for three months.
