A Dutch teenager has been arrested in Austria after a fight broke out at a bar in a ski resort.

The 18-year-old woman is reported to have kicked an Austrian tourist as he lay on the ground during the scuffle in Zell am See early on Sunday morning. She is also alleged to have cut him on the hand with a broken glass.

Two men aged 19 and 21 were treated in hospital for cuts, bruises and a fractured jaw. Local media said they were tourists from the province of Lower Austria.

The fight reportedly began when one of the Austrians was hauled to the floor by a 26-year-old Dutchman as he danced on a table, wounding his hand in the fall.

The Dutch woman was arrested at the scene and has been detained pending further enquiries.
