A particularly shocking incident occurred on a police site in Wittenau. Here an unknown object detonated around 8:20 p.m., while two police officers were on a routine security. The 31-year-old police chief commissioner suffered serious facial injuries and may threaten to blind. His 29-year-old colleague was hospitalized with a hit trauma. According to information from the Infranken , the police found that it was probably not a targeted attack, but that a "handling error" caused explosion when dealing with pyrotechnics. There are no signs that the explosion was caused by third parties and the investigation by the specialists for explosive offenses are continued.

It was also found that the explosion not only damaged the police station's fence, but also a company vehicle. The injured police officers have so far not been heard, which made the investigation difficult. In view of these incidents, the police continue to search for information and require the population. The situation not only represents a serious threat to the injuries, but also raises questions about security and properly dealing with dangerous materials, while the investigation continues.
