Famous from a high-profile criminal case, the "axe-wielding maniac" has once again become the subject of a criminal investigation in Petropavlovsk. The man was detained on suspicion of attacking a 54-year-old woman on the outskirts of the city after the victim contacted the police.
WHAT HAPPENED
According to the Telegram channel "HALYQSTAN", the incident occurred on the outskirts of Petropavlovsk. A 54-year-old woman was cycling back from her dacha when an unfamiliar man approached her and asked about a missing cow.
After the woman stopped, the man allegedly pushed her to the ground, began to strangle her, and tried to drag her towards a tree belt. The attack was interrupted by a random passer-by. Thanks to this, the victim managed to break free, escape, and immediately contacted the police.
