Swiss police said on Saturday that an officer had shot and killed a Sri Lankan man after the man lunged at other asylum seekers wielding two knives.

The 38-year-old asylum seeker was mortally wounded at around 2:00am (0000 GMT) Saturday after he tried to stab two other asylum seekers who were in the company of police officers in the southern Italian-speaking region of Ticino, police said.

Officers had been called in to break up a fight in Brissago, on the shores of Lake Maggiore, and were on the ground floor of a building when the Sri Lankan attacked the other people, police said in a statement.

In a bid to protect those present, an officer had fired at the assailant.

Despite attempts to administer first-aid, the man died on the spot. No one else was injured, police said.

An investigation has been opened into the shooting, they added. 

Police in the northern Swiss city of Winterthur are appealing for information after a giant polystyrene statue of Buddha was found in a park on Monday morning. The three-metre gold coloured Buddha was found by “astonished” staff at the Lindengut park on Monday but could have been placed there any time between Friday night and Monday, Winterthur police said in a statement. 

The statue will be taken to a storage facility in the city, police said. 

Anyone who saw the statue being placed in the park or knows who it belongs to should call Winterthur police on 052 267 5152.

What state was this in?

It was in Switzerland which is a nation in Europe.

Famous for its neutrality in global conflicts and incredibly corrupt banks.

Switzerland actually comes up a lot in US gun debates because it has the loosest gun laws of any developed nations and yet low gun crime

I've spent a lot of time in rural South America, and I've seen half a dozen people attempt to attack their neighbors with knives/machetes, and everyone just acted like it was normal

My guess was that in less developed areas of the world it's a basic way to solve arguments. You stole this thing or did me wrong, and I'm gonna fucking cut you

I wouldn't want to live in an area like that... in spite of owning 4 machetes myself.

Not sure where but I did see that earlier today. Something like for every 2 people 1 owns a gun and yah, they have very low gun crime. The US needs to figure out whatever the Swiss are doing and copy that.
