Man steals protein bars, then assaults officer in Wiesbaden police station
A man was arrested in Wiesbaden city centre after stealing protein bars from a shop. The incident escalated when he assaulted a police officer at the station, leaving the officer injured.
The trouble began on a Thursday morning when the suspect took high protein foods without paying. A store detective confronted him, but the man resisted and fought back. Police were called to the scene and took him into custody.
At the police station, the situation worsened. The suspect refused to cooperate and struck an officer in the face. The injured officer required medical attention. The assailant was held overnight before being released the next day. No name has been made public, and no prior criminal record was mentioned in reports. A separate case involving an intoxicated driver attacking police on Frankfurter Straße over the weekend appears unrelated.
The man remains unidentified in official statements. He was freed after one night in custody, but the injured officer’s condition was not detailed further. Authorities have not confirmed whether charges will follow.
