TWO warring German circus (马戏团) families came to blows late last month over some disputed (争议的) tent territory (地盘). The two families were camped on the eastern edge of the southern German city of Regensburg. The quarrel started with fist fighting; then some clown pulled out a gun. Three family members on each side were injured, including one gunshot (枪击) wound to the leg. Neighbors heard the gunshots and reportedly commented: “It’s a real circus over there!”
