Large police operation in Hanover: Ax attacker at the gas station

A dramatic incident occurred on Saturday evening in the Hanover district of Anderten: A 34-year-old suspected violent offender who was already sought because of previous domestic violence triggered a large-scale police and fire service. The man raced into a petrol station on the federal road 65 with a burning Mercedes and is armed armed with an ax in the sales room while an employee was able to flee.

around 9:35 p.m. he stops his vehicle next to a petrol pump, destroys a slice and stood up to the police. Fortunately, there were no injuries. The alleged perpetrator was on the run for two days and was finally overwhelmed by the emergency services. The incident shows the dangerous situation in which the police are in use against violent crimes.
