On Wednesday morning there was an alarming incident at the Gesundbrunnen station in Berlin that attracted the attention of the federal police. A man whose behavior has already been perceived as problematic by a security company was to be referred by the police police. The situation escalated when the 34-year-old man suddenly started to defend himself against the civil servants.

At 10 a.m., the emergency services reached the train station after they were asked for support. They found the motionless man on site, but during the review of his vital functions he suddenly became aggressive. In order to regain control of the situation, the police had to captivate him. The situation came to a head when the man tried to escape the measures and finally attacked a federal police officer in the course of the argument. He bit in her left thumb, which led to serious injuries, including the loss of the entire nail.

medical care and alcohol test

Following the incident, rescue workers were immediately alerted, which the injured civil servant brought to a hospital to ensure adequate medical care. In the meantime, the Latvian citizen was brought to the police station for further processing. There, blood was taken on judicial arrangement in order to check his condition regarding alcohol and drug use and possible contagious diseases. A breath alcohol test resulted in a considerable value of 2.13 per thousand, which indicates a high alcohol level.

The federal police took further measures and initiated an investigation on suspicion of resistance to enforcement officers against the man, who is already known to the police. In addition, video recordings of the incident were secured in order to document the event of the event.

After completing the police measures and the necessary procedures, the man was released, while the federal police carried out the further investigation. This type of incident raises questions about public security and the protection of the emergency services, especially in a busy area such as a train station.

The circumstances that lead to such violent outbreaks are often complex and can be influenced by various factors, including spiritual, psychological and social challenges. It remains to be seen what legal consequences this incident has for the accused and what teachings can be drawn in such tense situations for the future work of the security forces.
