Chaos in Künzelsau: Pepper spray attack injures ten vocational students!
In an incident at a vocational school in Künzelsau on Tuesday morning, ten people were injured when pepper spray was sprayed in class. This happened in the middle of a regular school lesson and caused a huge outcry among those present. The police have now launched an investigation to identify those responsible.

Police investigations
The background to this incident is still unclear and investigators are now looking for possible suspects. It remains to be seen whether the police can quickly find clues to find out who is responsible for the dangerous action. In the context of the start of the school year, such an event, which is extremely dangerous and questions the safety of students and teachers, is viewed particularly critically.
Such incidents involving the use of dangerous objects or substances during school hours raise questions not only about safety in schools, but also about the responsibilities and behavior of students. The fact that this happened in the middle of class makes the situation even more worrying. It is not yet clear whether this is a prank or a deliberate act of harm.
The school management has taken all necessary measures to help the students and teaching staff cope with the shocking event. It is expected that the parents of those affected will also be informed in order to support their children and take further steps if necessary.
The school community is greatly affected by this incident and it is up to the authorities to take the necessary steps to ensure safety in schools. This could also prompt a discussion about prevention measures and safety policies in schools aimed at preventing similar incidents in the future.
