Man threatens police officers with machetes in Argenbühl

A 56-year-old man is alleged to have threatened police officers with two machetes in Argenbühl during the night into Saturday. Officers had been called because he was allegedly physically aggressive toward family members. Police said he held the machetes threateningly toward the officers and later threw a burning object at them. A special unit arrested him using a Taser in the early morning, and he was taken to a specialist clinic. The officers were not injured, and investigations are under way, including for threats and an assault on police officers.
