Halloween horror in Berlin: ax attack and burning barricades!

Berlin. The Halloween night in Berlin again turned out to be a nightmare for the forces! An ax was even pulled out in Reinickendorf! The police were in constant use and had to temporarily arrest around 130 people while the city sank into chaos.

The security authorities report a terrifying balance: 23 investigative proceedings have been initiated, including due to the breach of the peace, dangerous bodily harm and resistance to enforcement officials. Two emergency services were injured - one on the hand, the other on the arm. The streets of Wedding, Schöneberg and Kreuzberg turned into a battlefield, while burning barricades and attacks on the police shaped the night. Cars were shot at with firecrackers and fireworks rockets - a dangerous game that many frightened.

pyrotechnics and riot in Friedrichshain

In Friedrichshain, around 150 hooded people gathered who ignited unabashed pyrotechnics. The result? A burning car, several garbage containers and even e-scooters went up in flames! The police reported color smears with reference to the Middle East conflict, which defaced the walls of the Boxhagener Platz. Everywhere in the city, fire were lit and garbage containers set fire - a picture of horror!

A particularly explosive incident occurred at 7.15 p.m. at the Wilhelmsruher Damm in the Märkisches district. Here a man was checked with an ax who defended himself violently. The police had to use irritant gas to overwhelm him before being taken to the hospital. The Halloween night in Berlin has once again shown that it is anything but solemn for the emergency services-chaos and violence shaped the image of the city!
