Old man dies after brutal attack in Oldenburg - perpetrator arrested!
A 69-year-old man was declared dead in Oldenburg over the weekend after a brutal attack. He died in hospital from serious injuries sustained during an attack on Lappan on December 16. The suspected perpetrator, a 24-year-old man, was immediately stopped at the scene by passers-by and arrested by the police. Despite the support the victim received from nearby pedestrians who tried to deter the attacker, the man could not be saved NDR reported.
The public prosecutor's office has now initiated an investigation into the killing. The 24-year-old was admitted to a psychiatric hospital because initial reports suggested he was under the influence of alcohol or drugs. The Oldenburg district court issued a detention order stating that the suspect will spend his time in a psychiatric hospital until the trial instead of in custody, as was the case NWZonline reported.
The perpetrator hit the victim several times in front of a pharmacy before temporarily fleeing. When he returned, he caused further serious damage to the already injured 69-year-old. This raises questions about the motive and circumstances of the attack, which are currently being investigated by authorities.
