Man threatens emergency responders with kitchen knife in Brandenburg
In Brandenburg an der Havel, a 26-year-old man opened his front door to emergency responders on Friday evening while holding a kitchen knife. The responders felt threatened, withdrew and called police. Officers restrained the man in his home shortly afterwards, and he was admitted to a specialist clinic because of his mental condition.
Earlier, a 25-year-old man had reported that an unknown man forcibly snatched his mobile phone. The victim was not injured. After the phone was located near Dreifertstraße, officers found it with the 26-year-old and returned it. Police said his description matched that of the suspected robber; the investigation is ongoing.
