In the center of Vienna, a policewoman was attacked by a 32-year-old woman on Monday.

The police were alerted to an aggressive person at Franz-Josefs-Kai and encountered a 51-year-old man and his apparently heavily intoxicated and agitated partner, who was unable to identify herself. In the couple's apartment, the woman initially pretended to search for her passport but became increasingly aggressive. She threw objects at her boyfriend and hit him in the face. When the officers attempted to separate the two, the 32-year-old resisted and kicked a policeman in the shin. This led to her provisional arrest.

She was initially held in police custody. The policewoman was taken to the hospital, according to the authorities on Tuesday.
