Chaotic Scene in Luisenthal as Man Opens Fire on Police

Officer gets wounded in gunfire exchange with suspect - Police officer ambushed and injured during confrontation with armed suspect

Hey there! So, there's this wild story unfolding in Luisenthal, part of the Gotha district. A 32-year-old fellow got himself into a pickle with the law enforcements, leaving one of them a bit worse for wear.

The whole shebang started when the emergency services requested backup at his residence. Upon arriving at the scene, our guy whipped out a small-caliber weapon and started shooting at the cops. One officer was hit but luckily the injury wasn't too severe.

When the police gave the warning shot, the man barricaded himself in the bathroom, somehow thinking that was a great plan. After about an hour and a half, he finally surrendered, surrendering his weapon and allowing himself to be arrested without incident. It turns out the weapon in question was just an air gun.

According to the police, the family members were the ones who called for help due to concerns about the man's wellbeing. Post-incident, he was taken to a hospital for a psychological evaluation.
