Woman allegedly attempts to stab man with folding knife in Mainz

A 36-year-old woman allegedly attempted to stab a man with a folding knife on 28 April on Anni-Eisler-Lehmann-Straße in Mainz. Police said she had previously been near an office building whose employees had already been involved in disputes with her. Two local residents spoke to her and later prevented her from entering the building. When she followed the men, she allegedly drew a folding knife with its blade extended and made several stabbing motions towards one of them. He evaded the attack and took the knife from her, while the two men restrained her until police arrived. She was provisionally arrested and is under investigation on suspicion of attempted dangerous bodily harm.
