Violently: disputes shake grip at night!

Violently: disputes shake grip at night!

In the night from Saturday to Sunday, June 15, 2025, a worrying incident occurred in Greiz that moves the mind. Around 2:00 a.m., an 18-year-old man was attacked by another man of his age on the Von Western-Hagen-Platz with punches. Fortunately, the consequences of this argument remained mild because the injured party only bought minor injuries and forego medical treatment. The Greiz police inspection has already initiated an investigation into suspected assault to clarify the incident. Witnesses are asked to report on 03661 6210 and to state the reference number 0152846/2024 in order to bring light into the dark and to help the police in their work, reports News.de .

But this act of violence was not the only one who caused unrest in the same night. Just 15 minutes later, at 2:15 a.m., there was also a physical argument in August-Bebel-Straße in which several people of Afghan origin were involved. Here the exact circumstances are unclear because different information about the process has been given. In this case, too, two men reported with minor injuries treated in the ambulance. The police authority has also initiated investigations for this incident and hopes for relevant information from the population.

a worrying trend

The frequency of assault has recorded a worrying increase in Germany in recent years. According to the Federal Criminal Police Office, high number of cases were repeatedly found between 2014 and 2024. The data is available on Statista, but the increasing potential for violence in certain population groups is difficult to ignore. A look at the statistics of Statista shows that violent crime in different forms, including bodily harm and dangerous bodily harm, keep appearing in the news.

An example of the concerned situation took place on May 24, 2025 when five unknown men attacked a 25-year-old Afghan on Brückenstrasse. The injured party also suffered minor injuries. In this case, too, the police initiate a procedure for dangerous bodily harm and asks for evidence of witnesses. The phone number is 03661/621-0, with the reference number 0133434/2025, such as presseportal.de reported.
