Stones throwing children at Reinhardsbrunn: Police are looking for witnesses!

On Thursday evening, May 15, 2025, children caused excitement at Reinhardsbrunn-Friedrichroda when they threw stones on tracks. At 7:30 p.m., the federal police received an emergency call from Deutsche Bahn, which caused immediate investigations. Although the officials could no longer find children on site, they came across a remarkable 15 kilogram stone in the track area. Fortunately, the stone was removed in good time before the next train could pass so that there was no damage.

The federal police are now looking for witnesses who can provide information about the children or the incident on the tunnel portal. Information can be sent by phone at 0361/659830 or by email to bpoli.erfurt@polizei.bund.de.
