"It is unknown how long the investigation will take. It could be a week or a month," he said.
According to Piniazhko, the full video of the incident is currently being analyzed, so they cannot release it to the press at this time.
The head of the communications team at the Lviv Regional TCR also reported that the woman did not report the incident to either the TCR or the National Police emergency number 102.
What is the police saying?
Meanwhile, the regional police stated that management has launched an internal investigation into the police officer who was part of the alert team.
"It has been established that the incident took place on September 8 at approximately 5:00 p.m. on Dunaiska Street in Lviv. TCR servicemen and a police officer who were conducting public awareness activities noticed a man who, when they attempted to check his documents, ran into the entrance of a building.
At that time, a female citizen provoked a conflict with the military personnel, during which she behaved aggressively and obstructed the performance of their official duties," the statement noted.
What led up to this?
It was previously reported that a conflict broke out in Lviv between military personnel and a civilian woman while an alert team was on duty. A video circulating on social media shows a man in military uniform pushing and shoving the woman, causing her to fall.
The Lviv Regional TCR and SS stated that this was preceded by the woman’s use of tear gas against the military personnel.
