Starnberg shaken: 28-year-old in hospital after blood attack!

On Saturday, November 1st, 2025, a 28-year-old was the victim of a brutal attack in Starnberg. The incident occurred at around 7:50 p.m. at Starnberg See train station when the victim was injured by multiple stab wounds in the back. The police suspect that there were personal reasons behind the dangerous bodily harm, as the perpetrators and the injured party had known each other for a long time. After the attack, the perpetrators fled on foot and the police even used a helicopter to search them. The injured victim was taken to a hospital with non-life-threatening wounds. Four people who may be connected to the crime were found in a nearby apartment. The main suspect, however, remains on the run.

The police quickly determined that there was no danger to the general population from this brutal attack. But the incidents surrounding Starnberg train station have repeatedly caused a stir in the past.

Similar incidents cast shadows

A similar incident was documented at Bahnhofplatz in January 2024. A man attacked an acquaintance with a telescopic baton out of jealousy. According to the prosecution, he pulled the weapon out of his jacket sleeve without warning and seriously injured the victim. She suffered a four centimeter long head laceration that had to be stitched in the hospital. The alleged perpetrator had to answer for dangerous bodily harm before the Starnberg district court and was ultimately sentenced to eight months in prison on probation.

The judge relied on the testimony of an uninvolved witness and a forensic medical report that confirmed that the wound was caused by a baton rather than another object. The incident was not only an argument between two acquaintances, but was apparently also characterized by personal conflicts and misunderstandings, because the defendant was firmly convinced that the victim was having an affair with his wife, which turned out to be unfounded.

Reactions from the population

In view of this spiral of violence, worried unease is spreading among residents and passers-by at Starnberg train station. The November 1 incident and the memory of last year's incident are causing many to think about necessary security measures. A resident, who wished to remain anonymous, said: "It can't go on like this. We would like to see more police presence to ensure the safety of people here."

The challenging situation at Starnberg train station requires a rethinking of the security strategy. Citizens hope that the fleeing perpetrators will be found quickly and that measures will be taken to prevent such incidents in the future. The issue will remain the focus of local reporting in the coming weeks as police continue to search for the main suspect and evaluate possible leads.
