Man threatens neighbour with kitchen knife in Munich

In an apartment building in Munich-Neuperlach, a man over 40 is alleged to have threatened a neighbour with a kitchen knife about 30 centimetres long on 29 October 2025. The man had knocked on the neighbour's flat door over night-time noise, displayed the knife and is alleged to have made stabbing motions towards the neighbour's upper body. The neighbour shut the door and called police. Officers arrested the man without resistance outside the building; he was taken to a hospital with psychiatric care because of psychological concerns. A criminal complaint for making threats was filed against him.
