after the European Championship game: New perspectives on violence in public space

In the picturesque city center of Sigmaringen, after the recent European Championship match between Turkey and Austria, terrifying scenes took place. A 41-year-old man got into an argument with his ex-partner and then attacked other family members. But that was not the only meeting that evening that heated the minds.

The incident escalated when the 41-year-old sat down in his car and specifically accessed a group of six, which also included the family members. With a quick jump to the side, they were able to get to safety at the last second before the car reached them. Fortunately, nobody remained physically injured.

The police immediately initiated investigations that concentrated on tried and tested dangerous bodily harm, dangerous intervention in road traffic, threat and coercion. Witnesses who have observed indications during this threatening situation are asked to report to the Sigmaringen police station on 07571/1040.

Such an incident throws a light on the potential violence that can arise after public events such as football games. It illustrates the need to take targeted measures in order to ensure security in such situations and to recognize and de escalate conflicts at an early stage. The incident in Sigmaringen underlines the importance that society works as a whole to prevent such incidents and to protect the community.
