Husband arrested in Hersbruck: Knife attack on women and daughter - murder commission determined

New neighborhood initiative supports victims of domestic violence

in Hersbruck (Lkrs. Nuremberg Land) occurred on Thursday evening (July 18, 2024) a tragic incident in which a 34-year-old woman and her 15-year-old daughter became the victim of a knife attack. The perpetrator, who turned out to be a woman's husband, was arrested while the two women suffered serious injuries.

A new initiative in the neighborhood, which is committed to domestic violence, was launched by this incident. The depressing reality of domestic violence often affects unexpectedly in apparently idyllic communities like Hersbruck.

The murder commission of the Schwabach criminal police has taken up the investigation and conducts investigations for an attempted homicide against the arrested perpetrator. Fortunately, the victims, although not currently being heard, are not in acute danger to life, which is due to the rapid use of the emergency services.

This shocking act underlines the need to raise awareness of domestic violence and offer sacrifices support and protection. The new neighborhood initiative will therefore provide resources and information in order to be able to help those affected in difficult situations.

It is important that the community comes together to condemn such incidents and to assist the victims of domestic violence. Through solidarity and education, we can help to repeat such tragic events.
