VLORA, Former Albanian footballer Agim Bubeqi was arrested after one person was killed and four others were injured in a brawl, police said.
Bubeqi, 46, had an argument with a group of men in a bar in Vlora, southwestern Albania. He allegedly injured all five with a knife he picked up from his home after starting the fight.
Bubeqi played as a striker for Flamurtari Vlora, winning an Albanian league winner’s medal in 1991, and has been capped six times by Albania.
Local media reported that Bubeqi was likely mentally deranged and would be psychologically tested.
