Psychotic 'Shaolin monk' injures six police officers (http://www.thelocal.at/20150325/psychotic-shaolin-monk-injures-six-police-officers)

Six police officers in Vienna were injured by a psychotic man dressed as a Shaolin monk and wielding a Samurai sword on Monday.
She opened the door to find a bald-headed man she had never met before dressed in an orange monk’s robe, and armed with a large sword. He pushed his way into her home, and she ran out and called the police.
Three police officers arrived at the building shortly afterwards and found the 39-year-old man in the stairwell.
They surprised him with pepper spray and managed to knock the sword out of his hand but all three officers were seriously injured in the scuffle. As the man seemed to be suffering from mental illness they took him to the Rufolfstiftung psychiatric hospital.
However, he managed to escape from the hospital just hours later and was spotted in Meidling cemetery wearing a white hospital gown.
When three police officers arrived he karate kicked and punched them. Again, they had to use pepper spray to subdue him and then took him back to hospital.
