66-year-old threatens Syrian with a knife: police intervenes!

On Monday, when the police were called to the Neuer Markt in Stralsund, an unexpected and tense Situation developed. A 66-year-old woman is said to have threatened an 18-year-old Syrian with a knife. The trigger for this escalating incident was apparently a dispute over a seat on a bench in which two other women were involved.

The argument began when the older lady asked the two women to get up from the bank to take a seat himself. However, since this does not understand German, they decided to withdraw and asked the 18-year-old for help when translating. This finally led to the confrontation in which the 66-year-old verbally threatened the young Syrian and pulled out the knife, apparently due to the obvious wearing of a headscarf by the youngsters.

Police acts quickly

The police intervened immediately, confiscated the knife of the 66-year-old and expressed a dismissal. Due to the serious situation, advertisements were filed for threats, insults and a violation of the weapons law. This event raises questions about dealing with each other in public spaces and lets the focus on the circumstances in the encounter between different cultural backgrounds and the subsequent escalation.

Such incidents are not only regrettable, but also leads a light on the challenges of intercultural dialogue and understanding. At a time when companies are increasingly diverse, patience and empathy are crucial. In this case, the police reacted quickly and professionally to de -escalate the situation and prevent possible more serious incidents.

As reports www.nordkurier.de, it remains to be seen in which further consequences arise from this incident and whether further legal steps against the 66-year-old will occur. Such events are a call for reflection and a better understanding of the neighborhood and its members.
