A fight which broke out between nudists and prudish sunbathers has ended in a court case after a man's cheekbone was smashed in the brawl.
The 32-year-old man and a friend refused to take off their swimming trunks in the nudist area of the popular Lobau region in Vienna, Austria, sparking abuse from nearby naturists.
After going for a swim in the lake still sporting their trunks they were confronted by two of the naked men, who told them: "We're going to take off your trunks."
One of the naturists, a 43-year-old man, then punched the man, knocking him into the lake and breaking his cheekbone, which had to be operated on after the incident in 2001.
The Vienna court is still considering the assault charge against the 43-year-old man.
