16-year-old detained: charged with knife assault on young woman in Aarhus West
The court in Aarhus has decided to detain a 16-year-old boy for four weeks as part of the investigation.
According to East Jutland Police, as cited by Ritzau, the young man is suspected of serious assault. He allegedly attacked an 18-year-old woman with a knife on Monday morning, striking her in the back. The incident took place in Bispehaven in the western part of Aarhus.
Furthermore, the boy is charged with attempting to injure a 19-year-old man in the same manner. He denies having committed any crime in both cases.
Investigators believe the conflict arose within a small circle of people with connections to drug dealing.
The accused is resident in Syddjurs Municipality. The municipal social authorities have been notified, and the family has also been informed of the matter.
