Batch on the Oktoberfest: 19-year-old seriously injured in argument

On the last Sunday, September 29th, a unfortunate incident took place at the Munich Oktoberfest, which caused the nearby attraction. Around 7:50 p.m. there was a tangible discussion between several people and the staff of a driving business. These incidents have been discussed several times in the press and show how quickly verbal disputes can turn into violence.

The focus of the argument was two young Munichers aged 17 and 19 and a 34-year-old man from Hamburg. After leaving the ride, there was initially a dispute with three employees of the driving business, including a 30-year-old and a 34-year-old Romanian as well as a 19-year-old employee from Neustadt an der Waldnaab. This verbal conflict escalated quickly and led to a palpable argument. Such skirmishes are unfortunately not uncommon at large events such as the Oktoberfest.

serious injuries and police investigations

The incident took a serious turn when the 19-year-old passenger was seriously injured by the argument and urgently had to be taken to a hospital. Fortunately, the other two passengers only suffered minor injuries. The employees of the driving business remained largely intact, which makes the situation even more remarkable. Such confrontations raise questions about security and dealing with each other at large festivals.

The Oktoberfest guard, responsible for security at the Oktoberfest, immediately took over the processing of the incident. Everyone involved was brought to the Oktoberfest guard and interrogated there until they were released after a complaint for assault. The exact arrangement and participation of the individual people in the dispute are still unclear and the subject of ongoing investigations by the police.

The events at the Oktoberfest clarify how quickly the mood can turn at the largest festival event in the world. Spectators should be aware that unpleasant incidents can happen even in the most exuberant ceremony. The responsible authorities are required to keep an eye on such incidents in order to ensure the safety of visitors.
