After Dispute Between Spouses in Vienna-Favoriten: Woman Injured Police Officer

When the officers arrived at the scene in Vienna-Favoriten, the argument was already clearly audible. Since no one opened the door, it was forcibly opened by the officers. Inside the apartment, they encountered a crying man sitting on the couch, as well as a 50-year-old woman (citizenship: Austria) who was just running into the kitchen.

Thanks to the quick reaction of an officer, it was prevented that the suspect grabbed a knife from a kitchen drawer, after she had already opened it. During the clarification of the situation, the 50-year-old behaved aggressively and resistively towards the
officers. She used considerable physical force against an officer and injured a female officer in the process. The suspect was then provisionally arrested. On the orders of the Vienna Public Prosecutor's Office, the 50-year-old was charged with suspicion of resistance against state authority. The man, who was also in the apartment, was provided with emergency medical care by the professional rescue service due to his mental state and was taken to a hospital.
