Man assaulted municipality employee during senior viewing in Täby
A municipality employee showing an apartment to seniors in Täby centrum was attacked by a man shortly after 10 a.m. on Friday morning, according to Aftonbladet.
The woman and other visitors managed to lock themselves in the apartment and call the police, whilst the man made his way into the building.
– For unclear reasons, the woman who was to show the apartment is attacked by this man, says Mats Eriksson, press spokesman for the Stockholm police region.
When police arrived, the man was still aggressive.
– He is still being disruptive when we arrive, so both pepper spray and a Taser were used to get control of him, says Mats Eriksson.
No one was physically injured during the incident. The man, who is in his 40s, was taken into custody under the law regarding apprehension of intoxicated persons (LOB) and is suspected of violent resistance and attempted violence against a public official.
