Rioter in Karlsfeld: Drunk chaos and police custody!

In the night of Thursday, July 11, 2025, a 42-year-old in Karlsfelder Rathausstraße was taken into custody by the police after showing himself aggressively and uncooperatively. The officials not only had to endure his anger in the argument, but also the sight of a parked car that the man intentionally kicked. According to sueddeutsche.de the alcohol test resulted in a considerable value of 1.6 per thousand.

The incident began when the officials gave the 42-year-old a dismissal due to his behavior, but which he did not meet. Instead, things quickly went down the stream: he defended himself against inheritance and insulted the police officers. In doing so, he suffered minor injuries, but they were no longer tragic.

What is police custody?

But what exactly does it mean to be taken into police custody? The term describes an interference with the fundamental right of the person, as is defined in German administrative and police rights. The [juraforum.de] (https://www.juraforum.de/lexikon/polizei- custody) explains that the police custody serves preventive danger defense and carried out by the police to prevent crimes or administrative offenses. The officials do not act in the context of law enforcement, but only ensure that the person concerned does not cause any danger.

In the case of heavily alcoholic people, the police officers are authorized to take them into custody if there are additional requirements. The duration of a police custody is limited to 24 hours; After that, a judicial order is required. The regulations for such measures can be found, among other things, in the police laws of the federal states. It is also interesting that the costs of the police custody can be imposed on the cause if the measure is considered legal.
