Armed madness in Seelbach: Police with Taser in action!

A dramatic police operation occurred on Wednesday evening in Seelbach when a 50-year-old man threatened the officials with a rifle. An attentive witness had previously reported an argument near a homeless accommodation, in which the man is said to have thrown a hammer after another. When the police arrived, the aggressor aimed at the rifle on the patrol before he left it and looked after further hammers.

After multiple requests and trying to grab a knife on the ground, the officials were forced to use a distance recycling device (Deig). The assignment immediately had an effect: the man fell to the ground and was arrested without further incidents. He suffered minor injuries. It turned out that the long weapon was a permission -free, loaded air rifle. The police were able to clarify the incident without serious injuries for themselves and others.
