Drunk Man Assaults Police Officer - Drunk man injures officer after domestic dispute in Fellbach
A 37-year-old man injured a police officer in Fellbach, Rems-Murr district, during a late-night confrontation. The incident began after a heated argument with his partner on January 19-20, 2026. Authorities have not released his name to the public.
The altercation started when the man physically assaulted his partner at their home. Police arrived at the scene after reports of the dispute. Officers found him visibly intoxicated and acting aggressively.
When they attempted to take him into custody, he violently resisted. During the struggle, a female officer suffered minor injuries. Due to his erratic behaviour and mental health state, he was later transferred to a psychiatric clinic instead of a standard detention facility.
The man now faces potential criminal charges for assault and resisting arrest. His case will be reviewed further, taking into account his mental health condition at the time of the incident. The injured officer received medical attention for her minor wounds.
