Shocking violence: Schalke hooligans attack Bergamo fans!
In Gelsenkirchen, the police reacted to a shocking incident that occurred on Wednesday evening. Hooligans of FC Schalke 04 attacked fans of the Italian association Atalanta Bergamo, which led to sharp criticism from police chief Tim Frommeyer. In a press release, he expressed his dismay about brutal assault and emphasized that violence in sport was outrageous. He underlined that the police will do everything possible to determine the perpetrators.
Frommeyer said that the violent fans of Schalke 04 were looking for an excuse to attack the peaceful supporters of Atalanta. This not only raises questions about the security situation in Gelsenkirchen, but also to the responsibility of the clubs in dealing with such extremists.
serious allegations and consequences
It is particularly noteworthy that these acts of violence take place in the context of the Ukraine War. FC Schalke 04 offers a training center for the Ukrainian Club Schachtar Donetsk this season, since the games in their own country cannot be held due to the conflict. Frommeyer pointed out that this made the incident more difficult and gives it an even bitter note.The police chief warned the association to clearly position itself against this violence. He expects Schalke 04 that the identified perpetrators are subject to sanction measures, including a ban on stadium. "It is time for clear measures," he emphasized and asked those responsible for the club to ensure order.
continued to emphasize Frommeyer that the police would do everything to protect both the fans and the clubs. The rapid reactions of the emergency services would have prevented worse, and luckily no police officers were violated. This emphasizes the need to rethink security concepts in the future.
In order to react to the apparently continued threat from violent persons, the police are planning to revise the operational concept for future games from Schachtar Donetsk in the Arena. In a worrying scenario, the incidents could cause the police to be recommended not to have any “guest performances” of foreign clubs on Schalke. This would not only have an impact on security, but also on the financial income of the club, since the rental of the arena is a significant source of income.
Frommeyer's words are clear: "The behavior of these alleged fans is not only unacceptable, it is anti -social." The police would therefore act with all sharpness against these violent files and take the responsible persons accountable.
