According to police spokesman Markus Dittrich, a 32-year-old rioted in the store around 1 p.m. and punched an employee in the face before fleeing. He left the checkout area devastated with, among other things, cleared shelves. Officers from the Quadenstrasse police station stopped him near the branch, prompting massive resistance from the Polish citizen.
