A drunk youth (17) threatened several passers-by with a knife in Nuremberg.
After a major manhunt by the police, he was arrested.
Nuremberg - Incredible scenes took place on Saturday, January 22, at around 4:45 p.m. in a bank branch in Nuremberg.
A 28-year-old had entered the anteroom of a bank branch to withdraw money from his account.
A 17-year-old youth who was previously unknown to the 28-year-old was in the anteroom, according to the police.
Out of the blue, the younger man finally hit the older man in the head and fled.

The aggressive and seemingly unpredictable youth suddenly found himself being pursued when his victim's father, a 49-year-old who had seen the beating, ran after the fleeing man.
He finally pulled out a knife and threatened the father, who then returned to his car to call the police.
In order to prevent this, the 17-year-old finally turned back and wanted to return to the 49-year-old.
However, he mistook the 49-year-old's car for another vehicle.
When he opened the door and looked into the faces of several uninvolved passers-by, the youth realized his mistake.
Since he was still holding the knife in his hand, he pressed it against the driver's neck and threatened her.
