Local journalist Margarita Kovalenko wrote about this on her Facebook page.
“So, station No. 496, a guy and a girl, a little drunk. Okay, not slightly. A young man with an ax in his hands entered the site, put the ax in the corner with the question “Can I leave it here, right?” and tried to go to the tables with ballots in order to exercise his right to express his will,” the journalist wrote.
As a result, the police took the man outside the territorial election commission.
“While he was indignant and had a row with the policeman, his companion (a certain Yulia) decided to express her indignation at the fact that I was photographing her man along with his hunting weapon. I felt scared when I realized that the ax was in her hands at that moment,” the journalist noted.
After that, according to her, the policeman realized that the case smelled like an ax, and “took the couple around the corner to wait for the task force.”
