Knife attack on the Holocaust memorial: 19-year-old arrested!
In Berlin-Mitte there was a shocking incident at the Holocaust memorial on Friday evening: a 30-year-old Spanish tourist was seriously injured in a brutal knife attack. The alleged attacker, a 19-year-old Syrian, lives in a refugee accommodation in Leipzig. This information was confirmed by the Berlin public prosecutor and further verified by reports from the Bild newspaper and the Berliner Zeitung. The attack happened with a pointed object, whereby the exact background and motifs of the perpetrator are still completely unclear.
The police arrested the young man near the memorial about three hours after the crime. He is presented to a judge today, which indicates serious legal consequences. The possible anti -Semitic motivation of the attacker, of which the Berliner Zeitung reports, is particularly worrying. The police security has already taken over the investigation to clarify whether it is a targeted attack. The life of the tourist could only be saved by the quick intervention of the rescue workers and emergency operation.
