Officer encounters water spitting from a man's actions
In Bayreuth, a 50-year-old man is currently under investigation following a violent incident at a local disco on a Saturday night. The man, whose identity has not been disclosed, was reportedly intoxicated and defied a police order to leave the venue.
According to the latest reports, the man ignored a ban by a security service in the disco and proceeded to resist arrest. He allegedly freed himself from an officer's grip and attempted to punch one of the officers. The man also reportedly kicked and struck the officers while being restrained on the ground.
One of the officers, a 32-year-old, suffered a light injury on the hand during the incident. The man also deliberately spat a large mouthful of water onto the policeman's face and upper body at the police station.
The prosecutor ordered a blood test for the man due to his visible intoxication. The results of the blood test are yet to be disclosed. The man is being investigated for assault, bodily harm, insult, resisting arrest, and defying a police order.
The investigation is ongoing, and no new information has been provided about the disco or the previous incidents at the venue. The man remained in custody overnight and is currently under investigation.
The police urge the public to respect the authority of law enforcement officers and to comply with their orders for the safety and well-being of everyone involved. This incident serves as a reminder of the importance of responsible behaviour and adherence to the rules in public places, especially during times of festivity.
