A man in his 40s has been booked by police after allegedly assaulting a building manager in his 60s at a luxury villa because the manager had not greeted him.

The Guri Police Station booked the man, identified only as A, without detention on charges including aggravated intimidation and is investigating the case, Yonhap reported Thursday.

A is accused of assaulting and threatening the building manager, identified as B, punching B in the face and elsewhere at a luxury villa in Acheon-dong, Guri, Gyeonggi Province, on Monday afternoon.

B sustained a facial fracture in the attack and was taken to a hospital for treatment.

Police believe A attacked B because B had not greeted him.

Police are continuing to investigate the circumstances of the incident.
