An incident that is making waves in Ludwigshafen: On Sunday afternoon, November 2nd, 2025, a 14-year-old boy was injured by an exploding firecracker on Spatenstrasse. According to reports from MRN News This happened around 5:30 p.m. when the boy was approached and turned around because someone called his name.
