Drama in Kiel: Knife attacker and policewoman injured!

A nerve-racking morning in Kiel! A 44-year-old man caused a stir on Sunday when he showed up at a police station armed with two knives. Without responding to the police's speeches, the situation quickly escalated: the officers were forced to draw their firearms. A shot in the man's foot ended the threatening appearance.

But the showdown took its toll. A 30-year-old policewoman suffered injuries to her leg and, like the attacker, had to be taken to hospital. A blessing in disguise: According to the police report, neither of their injuries are life-threatening. But what drove the man to this dangerous action? The answer remains a mystery, which the police are now trying to solve in extensive investigations.

Forensics and ongoing investigations

The crime scene was strictly cordoned off to protect every trace, no matter how small. The first surveys are in full swing. Understandably, the suspected attacker is being closely guarded in the hospital. Meanwhile, the investigators are bringing out the big guns to shed light on the mystery of this crime. Questions upon questions: What will become of the suspect? An application for arrest is pending, but precise information is not yet available.

The police in Kiel provided further information at the beginning of the week in order to shed light on the dramatic events. Until then, the city remains in a state of excitement and with the burning question: What will happen next?
