Police shoot after family dispute: 25-year-old seriously injured!
A dramatic incident occurred in Wiesbaden on Tuesday evening that could have more serious consequences than expected for a 25-year-old man. The police were called to a family dispute in the Mainz-Kastel district around 10 p.m. A neighbor probably made an emergency call when the situation in an apartment building escalated. When the officers arrived, the young man was in the apartment with two other family members, but the exact background to the dispute is still unclear.
What happened next is reminiscent of an action film. The 25-year-old, who was reportedly in possession of a machete, is said to have attacked the emergency services with an unspecified object. As a result of this threat, a police officer decided to act in self-defense and fired a shot. The man was seriously injured in the upper body and had to be taken to hospital immediately.
Important details about the incident
How SWR Reportedly, several patrol cars were dispatched to the scene. A special unit took control of the situation around 11 p.m. During the operation, officers found several objects resembling a machete in the injured man's apartment. It remains unclear whether he actually used a machete or something else to carry out the attack.
The Hessian State Criminal Police Office has already taken over the investigation into the background to the family dispute and the course of the operation. As the Hesse show emphasizes, those responsible should clarify what exactly led to this escalation and what role the family members played.
The incident raises many questions. What could cause such an argument? And how safe do residents feel in these increasingly turbulent times? Police work will probably take some time to shed light on the matter. The residents and the entire district are waiting for answers and hope for quick clarity about what is happening in their neighborhood.
