Suspected intensive care perpetrator arrested in Malchin

After a large number of violent acts, property crimes and traffic offenses in Malchin and the surrounding area, the police have now arrested a suspected intensive offender (Mecklenburg Lake District) and brought him before the judge. The Neubrandenburg regional court issued an arrest warrant against the 32-year-old German, the police said.

There are more than 100 cases, said a police spokeswoman for the German Press Agency. They ranged from illegal car racing to burglaries and theft to violent resistance against police officers. Sometimes there were several missions because of the man in one day. It is thanks to the meticulous work of the officers that an arrest warrant has now been issued.

Suspected intensive offender

The suspected intensive care perpetrator is said to have belonged to a trio who, in May 2025, beat a man who was sleeping in an empty house in Malchin until he was hospitalized. At the beginning of June 2026, the 32-year-old is said to have thrown a stone into a kitchen window while the family living there was in the room.

When the police wanted to take him into custody because he had already attracted attention several times that day, the officers had considerable difficulty overcoming his resistance - even though six patrol cars had been sent as a precaution. According to police, the man injured two officers with kicks, one of them so severely that he was initially unfit for duty.
