Police operation in Meißen: Man with a crossbow ensures an alarm mood!

Neugasse, 01662 Meißen, Deutschland - Today, the old town of Meißner is characterized by a massive police operation, which has been going on since around 10:30 a.m. Neugasse and the surrounding roads are cordoned off, while several emergency vehicles and police officers dominate the picture. The trigger of this large-scale is a 54-year-old man who rioted with a crossbow in his apartment and threw objects on the street and threatened the police officers, such as Sächsische.de reported. Residents are not allowed to leave their houses because there is an acute threat situation.

The situation escalated when the alcoholic man announced the accessories by the apartment door: "I put it on when they get in." Despite the threat, the police were able to try to clarify the situation without direct contact with him. Nevertheless, they decided to open the apartment door in the hope of finding the man's possible weapon. Surprisingly, at the time of the meeting, the man had no weapon in hand, such as mdr.de indicated.

conclusion of the use

After an intensive search of the apartment and discussions with the alcoholic man, the police found that there was no hostage -taking. However, the possible psychological constitution of the man who could make instructions on psychiatry is causing concern. The mission ended in the early afternoon, the man is now in police custody. It is also checked whether the threat is investigated against him.

It is important to point out the emotional stress that police officers experience in such situations. A study that was published in Translational Psychiatry shows that police officers experience average three traumatic experiences every six months and thus exposed to an increased risk of post -traumatic stress interference (PTS). Frequent symptoms are nightmares, anxiety and sleep disorders that affect not only the emergency services, but also the community that protect them.
