In Hohenfels, Bavaria, a young man freaked out during a rescue mission.

He drove the paramedics to flight with a machete.

Hohenfels - During a police operation in Hohenfels, the emergency services were threatened with a machete.

As the police announced, the paramedics were called to the man's apartment in the Neumarkt district in Upper Palatinate early on Sunday morning, January 2nd.

It is still unclear who called the paramedics.

According to the police, the rescue workers were alerted about a "medical emergency" and ordered to the 19-year-old's apartment.

SEK mission in Bavaria: man threatens paramedics with machete

When the rescue workers arrived at the 19-year-old's apartment, he initially had a treatment lasting several minutes, according to a report by the Bavarian Red Cross (BRK). Then, however, according to police information, he "went crazy" and attacked the two female paramedics with a machete. He threatened to kill her. A machete is originally a South American machete with a strong blade. In Europe it is traded as a weapon.

The two paramedics then "left the apartment in a hurry," said a police spokesman.

They left the medical equipment in the apartment and holed up in the ambulance, from where they called the police for help.

The 19-year-old threw the medical equipment out of the window and damaged it badly.
