Böller explosion in Bregenz: young people seriously injured!

Bregenz, Österreich - On January 1, 2025, there was a worrying incident in Vorarlberg, which focuses on the security situation during the New Year's Eve celebrations. 214 identity assessments were carried out in several missions, and the police had to arrest a total of two people. The arrest was arrested due to the suspicion of the order disorder, while another attacker was taken into custody after an attack on a police officer. The injured policeman had to be treated by a doctor due to the indefinite severity of his injuries. The events show that the new year has started with a high police presence to ensure the security of citizens, as reported on 5min.at.

A particularly tragic incident occurred in Bregenz, where three children aged 11 to 14 years were seriously injured in experimenting with self -made firecrackers. One of the young people, a 14-year-old boy, had to leave several fingers amputated after an explosion. This terrifying event underlines the risk associated with the improper handling of pyrotechnics. In addition, batteries were set on fire in Lustenau due to improper storage of pyrotechnics in a waste paper container, which forced the fire brigade to hurry to prevent worse things.

Legal consequences and pyrotechnics violations

The police also recorded 33 advertisements about violations of the Pyrotechnics Act and ensured a total of 308 pyrotechnic articles. Three more advertisements against people for judicial offenses related to fireworks are sent to the Feldkirch public prosecutor. In Lustenau, two firearms were also ensured during the official acts, which resulted in a temporary ban on weapons. These actions are part of the authorities' efforts to improve security during the turn of the year and to minimize the risk of accidents and damage caused by pyrotechnics.

In addition, there are cultural traditions that make the importance of the oath -handed, as can be observed in various historical and ceremonial contexts. This gesture, in which the right hand is raised, plays a central role in different cultural rituals, from oath performance in Switzerland to military ceremonies.
