In northern Germany, police officers were attacked with a pitchfork. A 63-year-old attacked officers in Hamburg-Langenbek with agricultural implements and an iron bar, but was not injured, a police spokesman said.
The police had previously been called to the man’s address twice to report a disturbance due to loud music and shouting coming from his apartment.
He attacked the police with a pitchfork
The first time, the man didn’t open the door to his apartment, but turned the music down. The second time, the police had the fire department open the door.
According to the police spokesperson, the man attacked the officers with an iron bar: “Pepper spray was used, but that had no real effect. Then he grabbed the pitchfork and stabbed his colleagues.” The man missed the officers.
“Psychological emergency”
After the attack, police initially withdrew and the Special Operations Command (SEK) was called in. These special forces removed the man from the apartment. “He was placed in a locked room by a doctor because he was in a psychological emergency,” the report said.
