Gelsenkirchen attack: confused date ends brutal knife attack!

In an extremely dramatic incident, a 27-year-old Gelsenkirchener was attacked in Herne during a supposed date. The young man had made an appointment with a woman on Friday evening, but instead of the expected companion, a masked perpetrator appeared with a knife. This threatened him and demanded his money and cell phone. After the attacker had obtained his prey, he hit his victim and fled in an unknown direction, such as Radio Emscher Lippe reported.

Details of the attack

The perpetrator, a male suspect aged around 20 to 30 years, is described as approx. 180 cm tall and slim, with a Mediterranean appearance. A dark scarf covered his face as he wore dark outer clothing and blue sweatpants with white stripes. The police have now started the investigation and are urgently looking for witnesses who may have observed the robbery. The criminal commissioner accepts information on 0234 909-8505.

While the search for the perpetrator is running, it turns out that the platform on which the Gelsenkirchener had agreed with the supposed woman is used in the region for encounters of singles, as the advertisements on single-meetings.de . Many users are looking for new acquaintances and potential partners, which often makes the platform a place for uncomplicated contacts and exciting meetings. However, it remains questionable whether this leads to a risk to the user.
