Deadly shots in Göppingen: Police chase alleged perpetrators after bar shooting

In a bar in Göppingen there were fatal shots in which a 29-year-old man died. Two other people were injured. The police are looking for a suspect who fled after the act. So far there is no evidence of its escape direction. A special investigation unit has been set up. The background of the crime is still unclear.

The mayor of Göppingen emphasized that there is no direct danger to the population. There is no evidence of an amoctat. The shots were reported by several people, the police found the victims on site. Despite the shots, the local wine festival took place as planned, without interruption.

pictures showed strongly armed police forces at the scene. Rescue services were also present to help. The bar was reopened one day after the incident, but was provided with an official seal. A passerby showed mixed feelings, but not afraid of continuing the celebrations.

The shots could be related to a long -lasting feud between rival groups in the Stuttgart area. In the past few months, however, the incidents decreased. Over 70 suspects have so far been arrested. The exact motives for the violent clashes between the groups remain unclear. Apparently it is not traditional gang crime.
