A Budapest police officer has died in an altercation with a knifeman in Hungary’s capital, local police have revealed. Officers in the Hungarian capital were called to an apartment building in Lecke Street in the Ujbuda neighbourhood at 10.11pm (9.11pm GMT) last night.
Police arrived after being told a man at the block was battering against the door of a neighbouring apartment in a bid to enter the premises.
The man then attacked the “reinforced number” of uniformed officers.
He stabbed three policemen with a knife before leaving the building and heading out to the street.
A patrolman shot him in the leg after firing a “warning shot”, the force has said.
