53-year-old woman threatened with knife in suspected attempted robbery in Rostock
According to police, a 53-year-old woman in a Rostock flat became the victim of a suspected attempted aggravated robbery on Wednesday evening. A 24-year-old man allegedly threatened her with a knife, assaulted her and demanded cash shortly after arriving for an arranged meeting. As the woman could not hand over money, he is said to have left; she sustained minor injuries and called police. Officers located the suspect near the scene shortly afterwards and found a butterfly knife and narcotics during a search. He was provisionally arrested, and a judge subsequently issued a detention order while the investigation continues.
