The officers first execute a search warrant issued by the public prosecutor’s office in the accused’s apartment.

“The man is suspected of being the main perpetrator, together with a 39-year-old and 24-year-old compatriot and a 34-year-old Libyan, of having been involved in a serious robbery a few weeks earlier on the Sonnenberg in Chemnitz,” a police spokeswoman said.

However, when the apartment in Schloßchemnitz was searched, the Russian could not be found at first – but he was found a few hours later.

“After he learned of the police measures, he randomly approached the next visible patrol car and damaged it,” the police said. The vehicle was a police vehicle from the OEG (Operational Task Force), which was busy carrying out a traffic check on Hainstrasse.

The 26-year-old broke out the vehicle’s parking sensor and attacked one of the officers (38). He resisted arrest and the police officer suffered a minor injury.

During a search, the police found small amounts of cocaine on him.

The accused was taken into custody today, Friday. In addition to the investigations already underway against the man, charges of assault on law enforcement officers, damage to property and violation of the Narcotics Act have now been added.
