Attack on restaurant operator in Frankfurt
A 25-year-old is alleged to have threatened and attacked a 54-year-old publican in his restaurant in Frankfurt-Sachsenhausen in the night leading into Saturday, together with two unknown men, according to frankfurt.t-online.de. According to police information, the three suspects had become involved in a dispute with the publican and beat him jointly. The restaurant was partially damaged in the process, and the publican was threatened.
Police officers arrested the 25-year-old at the scene provisionally. The two other men fled. During the arrest and while being transported to the station, the suspect offered massive resistance against the officers. A police officer sustained minor injuries to the elbow.
A judge ordered a blood test to be taken as the man was under the influence of alcohol. The suspect remained in police custody until the evening on judicial order to prevent further offences. The state prosecutor's office is investigating on suspicion of grievous bodily harm. The two fled companions have not been identified so far.
