A man was attacked on Avenue de la Gare at around 6.50pm on Wednesday. Reports say he was approached by an unknown individual, who grabbed him by the arm and struck him with his knee multiple times. This enabled the attacker to steal the victim's wallet. Police have launched an investigation.

Shortly after 3pm, police received reports of a man threatening staff at a shop on Avenue de la Porte-Neuve. A patrol attended and took the man into custody. He was visibly intoxicated and received a medical check as a result.

A similar incident took place in a grocery store on Place de la Gare on Wednesday evening. A man was caught in the act of shoplifting and began to scream as he was apprehended. When police arrived on the scene, the man, who was intoxicated, refused to cooperate and behaved in an insulting manner towards officers. He was taken for a medical check and later into custody.
