- A 54-year-old individual engages in assault against law enforcement officials, resulting in being fired upon.
In the Bautzen district, a 54-year-old individual confronted law enforcement officials at his residence in Radeberg on a Monday evening. They were there to examine his ankle bracelet due to suspicions of tampering. The man, reportedly, seized two kitchen knives and brandished them at the officers. In self-defense, the officers discharged their weapons, striking the man in his thigh. He was subsequently transported to a hospital for medical treatment.
This 54-year-old is no stranger to law enforcement and currently serves a probation sentence. The checks were conducted following signals that his ankle monitor might have been interfered with, according to the police. Subsequent investigations are now underway to gather more information.
The 54-year-old's history with the law led to several interactions with the police. Due to these interactions, the local police were frequently present in his neighborhood.
