Ten minutes after midnight, members of the Limassol Police Department, during crime prevention checks, while they were in an area of Limassol, noticed a person pushing a motorcycle, with the engine turned off.
The members of the Police approached him and then he lashed out with his hands, pushing an officer back. As it was established, this is a 20-year-old man, who, when he was informed that he was going to be arrested for the self-inflicted crime of assaulting a police officer, started shouting and swearing at the police officers, while he also attacked a second police officer who was at the scene.
Subsequently, the 20-year-old tried to start his motorcycle in order to escape and at the same time continued to move threateningly towards the members of the Police.
The 20-year-old was arrested and taken into custody to facilitate interrogations.
Polemidia Police Station continues the examinations.
