A drunk soldier in the Polish town of Mielnik fired shots at a civilian car. The man was immediately detained, according to Polish Radio Białystok.

The incident occurred around 3:30 p.m. when a soldier from the 3rd Podhale Rifle Battalion in Rzeszów left a training camp armed with a pistol and fired at a civilian car. Reports confirmed he was intoxicated at the time.

The media outlet writes that other soldiers quickly reacted and detained the shooter at the scene.

Initially, it was reported that the soldier served in the Territorial Defense Forces (TDF), but the spokesperson for the operation said this was not true. No one was injured in the shooting.

The Military Police Bureau in Białystok is currently investigating the incident.
