At night, on the boulevard near the Mermaid Monument, there was a confrontation between a police patrol and two drunk men. According to the capital police, they attacked officers. The aggressors pushed and knocked down the uniformed officers. They were detained.
A video appeared on social media showing a fight between a group of young people and policemen on the Vistula boulevard near the Mermaid monument. Two men who attack the patrol are particularly aggressive: a man and a woman.
The aggressors push and knock down policemen. The officers struggle with the men. At one point, a young woman is knocked down and lies on the ground for the rest of the film. She was probably trying to stop the fight.
The capital's policemen commented on the film on Platform X.
Police: the perpetrators were drunk
“There is no consent to aggression towards policemen! On Monday, around 3.30 a.m., two men attacked policemen on the Vistula boulevards. The perpetrators were in a state of alcohol intoxication, which increased their aggression. Both were quickly detained,” they commented.
They added that the men had already been charged with violating the bodily integrity of public officials. They face up to three years in prison.
“The perpetrators of attacks on police officers must take into account a firm response from the officers and severe legal consequences!” – they emphasized.
Command about “analysis for training”
In response, comments quickly appeared questioning the quality of the intervention. We asked about her assessment at the Warsaw Police Headquarters.
– Each police intervention, regardless of whether it was recorded and posted on the Internet or not, is analyzed from a training perspective so that each aggression towards police officers ends with the arrest of the perpetrators. This was also the case – replied the subordinate. Jacek Wiśniewski from the Warsaw Police Headquarters.
