Viennese Policewoman Bitten by Shoplifter

When the shoplifter left the clothing store in Vienna-Neubau with several pieces of clothing in a white bag without paying, the store detective then called the police. He waited for the officers at Christian-Broda-Platz and reported that the suspect had run to the subway station.

The police officers pursued the man on foot and found a person at Westbahnhof matching the description. Upon seeing the officers, the man threw the bag away and fled towards Mariahilfer Straße. Near Kaiserstraße, the officers stopped the 47-year-old. The man behaved aggressively, was uncooperative, and attacked the officers. He was provisionally arrested on suspicion of resisting state authority. The officers had to use considerable physical force as the man resisted and bit a policewoman. A small amount of drugs was found during a search. On the orders of the Vienna public prosecutor's office, the 47-year-old was transferred to a correctional facility.
