Aggressive escalation in the Erfurt parking garage: police came too late!

In the Erfurt Angerparkhaus, an incident occurred on June 2 at 6 p.m., which caused excitement in the local Facebook group. A Geraer described in her post that she got into a dangerous situation with her partner and autistic child after a dentist appointment. When leaving the parking garage, her path was blocked by an aggressive woman who attacked the vehicle and stood in front of other cars. The condition was perceived as confusing and threatening, especially for the autistic child who was overwhelmed due to the overload. A man whose car was blocked then got into a physical conflict with the woman.

Several passers -by chose the emergency call, but the police only appeared shortly before 7 p.m., which led to great resentment. According to the police, several emergency calls were registered, but there was no explanation for the delay. On the basis of these events, a service complaint was initiated and internal exams are underway. As presseportal.de .

Such incidents raise the question of how to react in the face of public aggression. The criminal officer Michael Müller from the Berlin police gives valuable recommendations. In his view, it is important to act at the first gut feeling. "Leave me in peace, I don't want to talk," can be a suitable reaction. It is also important that those affected try to free themselves from the situation and seek a "rescue island", such as a restaurant or kiosk. Further tips include the response from other people to support and clear messages to the surroundings, such as "Call the police!" Or "Drag the emergency brake!" To get help as quickly as possible, reports Deutschlandfunkkultur.de .

These incidents, both in the parking garage and in the supermarket, illustrate the increasing problem of aggression in everyday life. It remains to be hoped that the people concerned will find out more support in the future and that such situations can be handled better in the future.
