Police investigate two knife incidents in Differdange and Warken
A passer-by was injured in Differdange, while officers disarmed a man in Warken.
Police in Differdange and Warken investigated two separate incidents involving knives after reported fights and dangerous behaviour.
On 12 November 2026, around 21:15, officers were called to Differdange for a clash between several people. A passer-by tried to step in and settle a dispute between two individuals, but one of the parties allegedly stabbed him with a knife.
The injured man later made his way to the police station. During the response, a suspect was located in a local venue in the Avenue de la Liberté and a report was drawn up. The exact circumstances are under further investigation.
The next day, 13 November 2026, at about 07:20, police were called to a home in Warken after reports of a man damaging items and barricading himself inside. When officers arrived, the man held a knife and did not follow instructions to put it down, prompting additional units to be called in.
After some time, the man laid the knife down voluntarily and was brought under police control. He was then taken to hospital for a medical examination.
Police said both incidents are being investigated, including the circumstances that led to the knife use.
