Man remanded in custody after knife attack on mother in Schleswig
A 29-year-old man is alleged to have attacked his mother with a knife in Schleswig during the night of 19 April. Police said he had earlier been ordered to leave the flat he shared with his mother after allegedly attacking his sister. At around 4 a.m., he is alleged to have returned, forced open the flat door and attacked his mother.
Officers first used irritant spray but were unable to stop the attack. An officer then fired a shot and stopped the imminent knife attack. The suspect was seriously, but not life-threateningly, injured, taken to hospital and later brought before a judge, who ordered pre-trial detention. He is accused of attempted manslaughter.
