Passing through the book market, they came across a group of 7 so called antifascists. Realizing their superiority in number the antifa members rushed on the guys who in their turn repulsed a decent charge. The antifascists decided to apply unfair weapons. One of them took out a knife. There was a second uncontinuous fight after which the antifascists scattered and Maksim Chaika fell down with a knife wound. The knife stab happened to be fatal. In spite of all the attempts to stop the blood, his brethrens could not do it. The ambulance arrived in 20 minutes, and Maksim was delivered in the Raion Hospital with two stab wounds.
