Randals in the Saale-Holzland: Drunk man threatens passers-by!
On Thursday and Saturday of this week, the Saale-Holzland police inspection had their hands full with a 55-year-old man from the circle of the same name. This caused a significant sensation in a discounter when he smashed a beer bottle and refused to cause order.

The situation escalated when he threatened a passer-by with a metal rod, which resulted in the police expelling him. However, the man did not follow this request and ultimately had to be taken by an emergency doctor to a specialist clinic, where he spent the night. After his release on Friday, he attended an event in Stadtroda and resorted to alcohol again.
Police called again
The consequences of his alcohol consumption were quickly felt: On Friday evening, the police had to intervene again because he did not want to leave the gas station premises despite repeated requests. This time the man spent the night in the local police custody rooms. Unfortunately, such incidents are not uncommon and shed light on the problem of alcohol consumption in public, which is subject to constant regulations in many cities, including Germany.
In Germany, alcohol bans are quite common in public. For example, there are regulations that partially or completely prohibit the consumption of alcoholic beverages in public places in order to reduce harassment and violent offenses by heavily alcoholic people.

Reactions and measures
Violations of these rules can have uncomfortable consequences for those affected. In Cologne, order funds of up to 40 euros and even a house ban in the event of repetition are threatened in the event of violations. The local authorities and the police regularly have to act against alcoholized people who can not only endanger themselves, but also others.
The events related to the 55-year-old man once again show how important preventive measures are in dealing with alcohol. It remains to be hoped that both the population and the authorities will find effective ways to prevent such escalations in the future and to promote social interaction.
