Nuremberg: Man threatens police officers with a bottle of glass and provides considerable resistance

An incident at the Nuremberg Central Station caused a sensation when a 28-year-old man threatened police officers with a broken bottle on July 9, 2024 at 12.45 p.m.

The Nuremberg Mitte police inspection controlled the man between the middle and the main hall of the train station and discovered a broken vodka bottle in his backpack. For safety reasons, the officers took the bottle aside.

Suddenly the 28-year-old grabbed the bottle, directed the broken side on the officials and ran towards them. Despite the request to put the object away, he did not react. It was only when the officials pulled their service weapons that the man gave in and was brought to the ground.

Another official hurried to support the fiercing man and bring to the office. The police officers remained unharmed, while the accused suffered slight abrasions. The public prosecutor made a request for prison for the 28-year-old.

A blood sample was ordered, which was carried out by a doctor in the office. The accused is brought up to an investigative judge to decide on the question of adhesion. An investigation was initiated against him for threats and resistance.

This incident illustrates the important role of the police in maintaining public security and illustrates the potential risks that police officers are in their daily service.
