On Sunday, residents of a multi-family house in Vienna-Landstraße raised the alarm after a 50-year-old man caused a disturbance in the stairwell and smashed a glass pane of an apartment door with his fist.
Officers from the Vienna-Mitte police station encountered the 50-year-old, who, bleeding from the hand, immediately attacked the officers.

He was eventually overpowered using physical force. Paramedics from the Vienna professional rescue service treated the man's wound and took him to a hospital. During the incident, a police officer was injured. He received medical care at the hospital and had to undergo a test because the 50-year-old suffers from a communicable disease. The officer was unable to continue his duty.
