A U.S. soldier is currently under investigation for allegedly injuring multiple German police officers during a brawl at a Mannheim disco. The incident occurred when police were attempting to detain a 31-year-old individual who was resisting arrest, and the soldier intervened, engaging in a physical altercation with the arresting officers. During the scuffle, both the officers and the soldier fell down a flight of stairs. The soldier, who was found to be under the influence of alcohol, was eventually subdued and taken into custody. The incident is now under investigation, and it remains to be seen whether the U.S. military or German authorities will handle legal proceedings against the soldier.
