Fusion Festival in Lärz: Festival visitor in mortal danger!

Lärz, Deutschland - The 26th edition of the renowned Fusion Festival in Lärz, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, ended with sobering news this year. On Sunday, June 29th, the last tones of electronic music came to rest, while the dark sides of the festival come into focus. A festival visitor was brought to a clinic in a critical condition on Friday, June 27th and has been in mortal danger since then. Whether drugs are involved is currently being examined by the police, who already had numerous missions to clarify the situation.

Xavier Berger, a spokesman for the Neubrandenburg Criminal Police, said that a total of 152 advertisements were accepted by Monday afternoon. The high number of 88 arrests, which were under the influence of drugs at the wheel, is particularly worrying. Three more ads have been registered for alcohol at the wheel. There were also 36 ads for drug trafficking, which significantly clouded the Babber mood among the thousands of festival visitors.

Absentia of security

The Fusion Festival, known for its creative atmosphere and political messages, moves tens of thousands to the former airport every year. This amount not only ensures a colorful hustle and bustle, but also stirs up the risk of massive drug use. During controls, the federal police secured intoxicants worth around 18,000 euros. A particularly sensational find was 1.8 kilograms of fruit gums that were probably moved with cocaine.

The festival, which stands for more than just music, has always had to deal with drug problems in the past. Toxic contaminants, which often arise from the stretching of drugs with other substances, are a serious problem. Half a pill ecstasy can already lead to an overdose for ignorant buyers. The demand at festivals is so high that many drugs do not even know the exact dosage. According to an examination, other dangerous substances such as methamphetamines or ketamine can be contained in ecstasy pills that increase the risks exponentially.

A look into the future

The police will continue to examine the incidents in accordance with learning from this situation and ultimately ensuring security at future events. The questions about the cause of the critical state of the festival visitor and the numerous drug finds remain unclear for the time being. The Fusion Festival is known for its special atmosphere, but how far will the organizers go to keep them safe in the future? It remains to be seen how the situation will develop and what measures are taken to protect festival goers.

In this context, it is important to be aware of the dangers of drug use. Information about the risks and the often questionable ingredients can potentially save lives. As the AOK states, the contamination of drugs is a serious problem that cannot be ignored.
