Mass brawl at Nuremberg Central Station: Wow, what happened there?

Nürnberger Hauptbahnhof, 90402 Nürnberg, Deutschland - Nürnberg (ots)

Alarm at Nuremberg Central Station! On Friday evening, November 1st, a violent argument between around 40 people was discharged at the western exit of the train station. The scene developed after a heated verbal argument and resulted in a chaotic mass brawl when the federal police and the state police were quickly on hand to control the situation.

At 6:45 p.m., the authorities received the urgent command and several patrol cars raced to the crime scene. There, the officials were able to meet six men who had participated in the fight - all of them Syrians aged 16 to 29 years. Initial investigations and the evaluation of video recordings show that the argument between two groups of the same size took place. In the middle of the chaos there was even threats with a knife, and an unknown person converted a chain into his impact instrument. Particularly frightening: A 19-year-old Syrian hit his opponents with the iron end of a vacuum cleaner!

determination and call for witness

The police have now initiated an investigation into a particularly severe case of the breach of the peace, assault and dangerous bodily harm. Two main suspects-a 19-year-old and a 29-year-old-were taken to the office, but were released after the legal review. It is striking that despite the violent argument, nobody was seriously injured, so that a hospital visit was not necessary.

The federal police now need the help of the population! Witnesses and persons who can provide relevant information about the incident are urgently asked to contact the phone number 0911 20551-0 or by email to bpoli.nuernberg@polizei.bund.de. The incident again illuminates the dangerous situation at the Nuremberg Central Station - and we ask ourselves how such violent clashes can occur!
