Syrian drunkard attacks policewoman with nail file!

A dramatic incident occurred on Monday night in Vienna-Rudolfsheim-Fünfhaus when a 25-year-old Syrian who allegedly did not pay for a drink turned the police against him. The officers were called to a hotel bar on Ullmannstrasse at 12:30 a.m. because the guest was loud and aggressive towards the staff. Despite several attempts by the police to de-escalate the situation, the perpetrator remained unpredictable and responded to attempts to clarify his identity by kicking him, as exxpress.at reported.

The incident escalated further when the attacker grabbed a nail file and attempted to stab one of the police officers. As oe24.at described, the officer managed to fend off the attack in time, which probably prevented anything worse from happening. The policewoman was slightly injured; Nevertheless, the Syrian was immediately arrested and taken to a prison. The charges include attempted murder and resistance to state authority. However, when questioned, the man denied any responsibility and an alcohol test carried out showed a blood alcohol level of 0.00, indicating that alcohol did not play a role in this incident.
