The couple walked on the Besterdring in Tilburg around 06:00 on Saturday morning. According to the police, the two elderly people walked there so early because it was still quiet outside. The man was walking behind a walker.
The 25-year-old suspect approached the couple and asked them for a ‘stickie’, a type of joint with weed or hash in it. The husband and wife told him they don’t smoke. The suspect kicked the man in the leg and punched or punched him in the back, police said. He yelled at the woman.
During the arrest of the man, he insulted officers, according to the police. He was arrested for both assault and insult.
