As can be seen in the video-document, the perpetrator runs away, with DIAS policemen chasing him. Finally, at the junction of Menandros and Chalkokondili streets, they approach him and manage to disarm him.
The 32-year-old resists and tries to push the police awaykicking and punching them. During his arrest, the pistol was also collected, which was found to be an air pistol.
The man was arrested and taken to the AT. Omonias, where it was found that he had been imposed the restrictive conditions of reporting three times a month to a police station in his area, as he had been accused of thefts and robberies.
According to estimates, the 32-year-old before his arrest was planning to commit a robbery.
