Suspect Held at Hamburg Main Station, With a Rate of 0.4% in Custody - Individual under arrest with a blood alcohol level of 4 promille

Early Tuesday morning, a 27-year-old man was arrested at Hamburg's Central Station following an incident involving the harassment of a federal police presence team. The man was subsequently taken into custody by the federal police.

According to reports, the man's actions were reported to the police, and his aggressive behavior led to his arrest. The incident occurred in the bustling railway area, where the man's intoxicated state put not only himself but also passengers and helpers at risk, as per the Federal Police.

Upon his arrest, the man was handcuffed and taken to the federal police station, where he was given sufficient time to sober up in the detention cell. He voluntarily took an alcohol test, and the results revealed a blood alcohol level of 4.21 promille.

The man was also examined by a doctor at the federal police station to ensure his health and wellbeing. The responsible police authority that raised the harassment allegation against the man is the Federal Police Inspection Hamburg (Bundespoliceiinspektion Hamburg).

The Federal Police have issued a warning against intoxication at railway facilities, citing frequent severe accidents that occur due to heavily intoxicated persons combined with reckless behavior. Intoxicated persons, they say, endanger not only themselves but also passengers and helpers through their reckless behavior.

The incident serves as a reminder of the importance of responsible behavior in public spaces, particularly in sensitive areas like railway stations, where the safety of many is at stake. The federal police continue to monitor such incidents and take necessary action to maintain order and ensure the safety of all.
