Heute, 15:14

On Kärntner Straße in Vienna, a 19-year-old man punched a police officer in the face on the night of Wednesday.

The man was arrested, and a small amount of narcotics was also secured from him. The e-scooter driver was stopped due to several traffic violations. A few hours earlier, an officer was also assaulted elsewhere in Vienna. According to the authorities, the incident took place at the Handelskai subway station in Brigittenau. Two apparently intoxicated men had shouted anti-police slogans towards officers and were stopped. One of the two behaved aggressively towards the officers and was reported. Subsequently, the aggressive behavior of the 33-year-old escalated, leading to his arrest. During the arrest, he struck an officer on the back of the head. The Austrian was provisionally arrested for attempted resistance against state authority and attempted serious bodily harm.
