Man attacks several drivers in the Upper Palatinate and wants to pull them out of their cars
On Sunday, November 4th, at around 2 a.m., several road users and residents called the emergency number and initially reported clashes on the open road in the Lindenviertel.
As it turned out, a young man (20) tried to stop several cars.
He is said to have posed as a police officer and sometimes tried to pull the drivers out of the cars.
At least one car was damaged.
He behaved aggressively towards the arriving police and therefore had to be taken into custody.
"Because of his considerable danger to himself and others, the man was finally admitted to a specialist clinic," the press release continues.
