Domestic argument leads to police intervention

In a troubling incident that unfolded on a Saturday evening in Bassum, a town located in the Diepholz district, a heated argument between a 56-year-old man and his wife resulted in a physical altercation. The argument took place in a house where several family members, including children, were present.

According to reports, the adult son of the couple contacted the police to report the incident. The 56-year-old man was in possession of a firearm during the argument, and his wife sustained slight injuries.

The police responded promptly, dispatching multiple patrol cars to the scene. They managed to persuade the man to leave the house over the phone, and he was taken into custody without resistance.

Emergency services treated the wife's injuries, and no other injuries were reported during the incident. The names of the individuals involved have not been disclosed in the available reports.
