About

The Czech police are currently involved in two notable incidents. In one case, they are actively searching for a thief who stole an 800-year-old skull of Saint Zdislava of Lemberk from a church. Security footage has been released showing a suspect believed to be carrying the relic. In a separate event, the Czech police were present at the Prague derby football match between Slavia Prague and Sparta Prague. The match was abandoned in its final minutes after hundreds of Slavia supporters stormed the pitch, preventing Slavia from securing the league title. These events highlight the police's role in both criminal investigations and maintaining public order at major events.
