Police in Olhão arrested a 39 year old man after he entered his ex's place of work with a knife, making several death threats to her.
The police statement says that the man tried to enter the building, but was initially prevented from doing so by his ex-partners colleagues.
Unhappy with this situation, the man then managed to enter through a door at the back of the building, but was once again prevented from contacting the victim, who was seeking refuge inside a room. The attacker made several threats to the victim, including death threats.
The PSP were called to the scene and intercepted the man when he tried to flee. He was detained in possession of a bladed weapon, which was seized from him.
The suspect has been remanded in custody, for committing the crime of domestic violence.
