BERLIN (Reuters) - An elderly German grew so attached to a poolside deckchair that he attacked a woman who moved his towel to another lounger, police said Tuesday.
When the 76-year-old pensioner returned to his favorite spot at a pool in the central town of Bad Endbach, he was enraged to find the woman, 29, had moved his towel to an unoccupied lounger so she could lie down next to her mother.
The other chair was just the same "but he didn't want to use that one," said a police spokesman in nearby Marburg.
When abusive language failed to shift the woman, the furious senior citizen got physical. "He tipped the chair over and her with it," the spokesman said. "She couldn't believe he went so far over such a trifle."

Obviously, he has obsessive and possessive traits.

that maybe wright, but on the other hand the women could have been more understanding and polite, people have no respect for elders these days. (neither do i but thts besides the point)
Here's my opinion.. personally, I would have just sat on the other chair.
But she DID move his towel, so, if he was going to cry about it and wanted his seat back, he should have gotten it.

Germans are infamour for "reserving" deckchairs with towels.
Me and my friends went to Greece and in the morning there were 5 towels on the seats we usually took each day when we got up, we knew that it was a group of germans who'd done itso we just moved the towels to other chairs and sat down. They gave us dirty looks and muttered but didn't come up to us. Wisely.
I hate people who try and reserve things like deckchairs anyway, first come first serve is my motto!
