The intervening officers were able to stop a man who matched the description near a nearby park. The man was very uncooperative and only put the glass bottle down after being repeatedly asked to do so. The 41-year-old Romanian national was temporarily arrested. During the arrest, the man repeatedly tried to resist using physical force. An officer was injured during the arrest. A conducted alcohol test showed 1.17 per mille in the 41-year-old. The man is in police custody.
