Knife attack on Dortmund Central Station: Young men involved in a quarrel

Dortmund, Deutschland - Last night, on April 15, a brutal incident scandalized the passengers in the regional express at Dortmund Central Station! A physical argument between several young men escalated when an 18-year-old threatened with a knife and used a glass bottle as a weapon. The federal police were alerted at 10:05 p.m. after witnesses reported an extremely dangerous dispute with sometimes serious injuries.

The police provided three young men aged 12, 15 and 18 and an 18-year-old woman. The 15- and 18-year-old had injuries on his face that indicated a violent struggle. The 17-year-old suspect from Erkrath was also targeted by the officials after he was identified as victims by the attackers. It was determined that the argument apparently broke out after a verbal dispute over cigarettes in the main hall of the train station. Video recordings from the train were requested and the arrests of the aggressors were initiated, while they are determined against dangerous bodily harm.
