The highest alarm level: Federal Police impose weapons ban in train stations!

In a shocking measure, the federal police have issued a driving ban for dangerous objects in the main train stations in Dortmund and Gelsenkirchen. From October 11th to 14th, no weapons, including various knives and batons, may be carried. Violations can have drastic consequences, including dismissal and fines up to 200 euros!

Background of this strict regulation is the worrying increase in violent incidents in these traffic nodes. Despite intensive controls, the numbers remained alarmingly high, since dangerous objects come into play again and again. In the past few months, the police have ensured numerous knives and other weapons, which underlines the need for this ban. The federal police appealed to travelers to adhere to the new rules and will increasingly carry out checks in the coming week to ensure security.
