Carnival in Rheinisch-Berg: happy celebration despite alcohol excesses!

Kölner Straße 1, 51515 Kürten, Deutschland - Weiberfastnacht started in the Rheinisch-Bergische Kreis with happy celebrations, but there were also dark sides. Numerous carnivalists flocked to the train in Kürten-Bechen, while an alarming number of alcoholic young people remained in the parking lot at the Kölner Straße/Odenthaler Straße roundabout. Strict administrative offenses were found here: two people had a knife and an apparent weapon.

Despite these incidents, the majority of the carnival were peaceful. The police reported no further significant operations in connection with the celebrations. In order to ensure security in the coming days, the officials are present with a strong contingent to enable the jecken to celebrate carefree and happy.
