Police investigate separate incidents in Jablonec nad Nisou and Plzeň

Two distinct security incidents were reported in the Czech Republic. In Jablonec nad Nisou, municipal police responded to a call in the early hours of October 24 following reports of individuals entering a courtyard with flashlights and the sound of bangs. Officers pursued a man who fled the scene, eventually apprehending him using coercive measures after he resisted. While the man claimed he only intended to sleep in a shed, officers discovered two bags containing hand tool cases nearby. The case has been handed over to state police.

In Plzeň, an inmate at the Borech prison attacked several guards during the night. The incident involved an aggressive prisoner who reportedly attacked two guards, prompting four additional supervisors to intervene. During the struggle, three people sustained light injuries and were transported to a medical facility. The prisoner was subsequently moved to a civilian hospital under strict security measures. Prison officials and police are investigating the assault.
