Young people alert the police: emergency reserve on escalator causes excitement

In a dangerous campaign, two 19-year-old Bolivians operated the emergency stop of a escalator at Stuttgart Central Station on Thursday night, which almost led to a fall of several people. The incident occurred shortly after midnight when the young people stopped the escalator abruptly and triggered an emergency call. Fortunately, nobody was injured, although the situation for the passengers was threatening.

When the alarmed federal police arrived, the two first tried to flee, but could be caught shortly afterwards. After completing the police measures, the young men were released. Now the federal police are investigating them on suspicion of misuse of emergency calls.
