Drama in Weiden: Mann arrested after a fatal ecstasy champagne!

In a shocking incident in Weiden in the Upper Palatinate, a restaurant visitor died in February 2022 after drinking from a bottle filled with champagne. Instead of the sparkling drink, the bottle was filled with liquid ecstasy. Almost three years after this tragic event, the public prosecutor's office has now arrested a 45-year-old man who is urgently suspect of having owned the drug.

The fateful evening started with eight friends who opened a bottle in a restaurant that they thought was champagne. After consuming the unknown liquid, some of them collapsed, and a 52-year-old man finally succumbed to his injuries. The rest of the guests suffered serious health damage, with some of them even in mortal danger.

Investigations and arrest

The "Markt" Commission of the Weiden criminal police inspection was launched after the incident to determine the background. The suspect, a Dutchman, was arrested in the Netherlands in June 2024 and transferred to Germany in September. He is currently in custody.

against the man is determined for negligent killing, negligent bodily harm and gang -based drug trafficking. The public prosecutor explains that the bottles that ultimately came into the hands of the restaurant visitors may come from the possession of the suspect. The investigators now also focus on possible accomplices, while the suspicion of another man who was delivered in November 2023 could not be confirmed.

other affected and warning

A short time after the incident in Weiden, there was a similar incident in the Netherlands, in which those affected were also injured by drugs. In Germany, other bottles were discovered with MDMA - the active ingredient of ECSTASY -. The Federal Office for Consumer Protection has therefore issued a warning to ask people to be careful in the event of unclear content of champagne bottles.

The warning says that you shouldn't try anything if the content does not pearl or reddish-brown and has an anise smell. Smaller quantities can also be fatal when taking it, which is why an extreme caution is required.

These tragic events underline the dangers that can emerge from unexpected drug mixes. The investigation is ongoing and the public prosecutor hopes to collect further indications of the background and the spread of such dangerous substances. The case study remains in the discussion, since it not only raises awareness of drug use, but also emphasizes the need for an increased review of such incidents.
