Man moves folding knife toward opponent during dispute in Sömmerda

A dispute between two men escalated on Thursday evening on Frohndorfer Straße in Sömmerda. Police said a 28-year-old man pulled a folding knife and repeatedly moved it toward a 40-year-old man without injuring him with the knife. He then kicked and punched the 40-year-old, causing minor injuries. The suspect subsequently tried to flee with his opponent’s bicycle, but the man prevented this. The 28-year-old fled on foot but was stopped by police shortly afterward; he too had minor injuries and received medical treatment. Investigations include suspected dangerous bodily harm, threats and attempted theft with weapons.
