Alcohol - A 17-year-old slaps police officers
A 37-year-old policeman was lightly injured in the face by a 17-year-old in Dresden due to fist blows. According to the Dresden Police Department, the teenager was in a "apparently helpless state" after consuming significant amounts of alcohol. They therefore handed him over to his mother's care. However, he suddenly struck the policeman twice with his fist. An alcohol level of 2.7 promille was detected in the 17-year-old.
In the same city of Dresden, where this incident occurred, reports of criminality have been on the rise in recent Saxony statistics. Despite being handed over to his mother's care after a "Faustschlag" incident, the 17-year-old's alcohol-fueled behavior continued to pose a threat.
