Man allegedly threatened residents in Sommersdorf with a machete

In Sommersdorf, a 27-year-old man allegedly threatened one resident and other residents with a machete after an argument on 24 June. When officers found him at about 17:40, he was verbally aggressive toward them. He no longer had a machete while heading to the railway station, but officers seized a knife from him. A doctor was called after alcohol and drug tests, and the man agreed to admission to a psychiatric facility. Police opened investigations over threats of criminal offences and an alleged breach of weapons law.
