Rhein in Flames 2025 First record of the Bonn police: only occasionally missions despite changeable weather
The Bonn police have published an initial assessment of the “Rhein in Flames” in 2025. Despite the inconsistent weather, which led to longer interruptions on May 3, 2025, the police missions were limited. The emergency services only had to intervene sporadically, which indicates a successful planning and implementation of the security measures.
Police Director Petra Evenschor said that the weather conditions had a significant impact on the event. In the evening of the event there were individual conflicts, but the police acted early and consistently against conspicuous situations. This proactive approach turned out to be effective again this year.
deployment statistics and incidents
A total of nine references were pronounced by 1.30 a.m., with only one man being detained to enforce this measure. The police received several reports of bodily harm, insult and violations of security requirements. An alcoholic 36-year-old who did not react after a dismissal had to be taken into custody because he was violating conditions.
At 10:50 p.m., two men were checked in the area of the electric fuels, and a secured knife was lighted. An investigation was initiated and the men also received a dismissal. Another bodily injury offense occurred around 11:50 p.m. when a stranger beat a man in a crowd and also injected another person. In this case, the police are hoping to receive information from the public.
The currently shown crime numbers are temporary and could still change because additional advertisements can be received by the Bonn police or existing cases can be re -evaluated. The organizers and the police are in close exchange in order to continue to ensure the safety of the participants and to recognize potential problems at an early stage.
