Hanau: Man allegedly threatened partner and witnesses with knife
A 21-year-old man allegedly became violent towards his 19-year-old partner during a dispute in Hanau on Monday evening. The woman fled his apartment to a bus stop on Gustav-Adolf-Straße, where she asked two witnesses for help. Shortly afterwards, the three encountered the man again near Hanauer Vorstadt, where witnesses said he held out a knife and handled it in front of them. Officers temporarily detained the suspect minutes later. Searches did not locate either a knife or a firearm, and investigations into alleged bodily harm, threats and a suspected weapons offence are continuing.
