The incident occurred on May 30, around 11:00 p.m. A conflict arose between a 35-year-old resident of Zhytomyr and a group of four men based on personal animosity. Because of this, the suspect had the intention to commit a crime.
He came to his apartment, took a grenade and returned with it to the offenders. Then he put it in a combat position and threw it, after which there was an explosion.
