An alert pensioner noticed the young man kicking cars near a school. When the pensioner confronted him, the teenager reacted unexpectedly aggressively and obviously wanted to stab him with the knife! A frightening scene that no one could have predicted. Apollo News reported on the wild chase that followed: The police first pursued the attacker on foot and then in the police car through a residential area.

The police tried to control the situation with pepper spray and finally fired a warning shot into the lawn to stop the attacker. But the thrill only ended when the exhausted 17-year-old sat down on the ground - the police were finally able to arrest him.
The consequences after the arrest
