The suspect should go to psychiatry

Hannover. After the knife attack on two men in Hanover, there is now new information about the alleged perpetrator. According to the suspect, the public prosecutor assumes that he is mentally disturbed, as the "Hannoversche Allgemeine Zeitung" (HAZ) reports. For him, this means accommodation in a psychiatric clinic instead of pre -trial detention. He is said to have chosen his two victims.

As a police spokesman announced on Sunday, a 30-year-old man and his partner freed a car in the district of List when the attacker stabbed him. The 30-year-old suffered life-threatening injuries. According to the police, there is no longer any fatal danger. The victim's girlfriend was unharmed. A 59-year-old passerby hurried to the pair, but was also attacked and injured.

The alleged perpetrator fled, but was arrested by the police. Two cases of murder attempts are examined against him.
