In the night leading to Saturday, officers from the Rötzergasse police station issued an 18-year-old and two of his companions a ban on entering the Yppenplatz protection zone. This measure was intended to prevent further crimes, as all three had previously been involved in criminal activities.

At the Brunnengasse police station, the individuals received an information sheet about the entry ban for the Yppenplatz protection zone. During this, the 18-year-old attacked a police officer with punches and offered strong resistance during the subsequent arrest by attacking the officers with punches, kicks, and headbutts.

18-Year-Old Injured Several Police Officers During Search

Another outbreak of violence occurred in custody when officers attempted to remove the man's handcuffs to search him before placing him in the cell. The 18-year-old was eventually overpowered and brought into the cell. Four police officers were injured in this incident, three of whom had to be treated in the hospital.
