Two Incidents Involving Women and Police in Germany Raise Questions of Behavior and Motive
Separate cases in Bavaria and Rhineland-Palatinate involve a drunk woman's altercation with police and a driver's attempted attack on an officer.
- In Ludwigshafen, a 36-year-old woman, heavily intoxicated with 2.15 promille alcohol in her system, shoved two police officers and resisted arrest after being told to leave the scene of a medical emergency.
- The woman in Ludwigshafen faces charges of resisting law enforcement officers, though no injuries were reported during the incident.
- In Schrobenhausen, Bavaria, a 26-year-old woman drove her car directly at a police officer during a traffic stop, forcing the officer to jump aside to avoid being hit.
- The Bavarian driver fled the scene, leading to a high-speed chase that ended in a crash where her car overturned; she was uninjured, but two officers sustained minor injuries.
- Authorities are investigating the motives behind the Bavarian incident, as initial alcohol tests indicated a level under 0.5 promille, insufficient to explain the driver's actions.
