Carnival celebrations on women's carnival are mostly peaceful. Fewer revelers on the streets than usual because of the weather.
Three police officers were slightly injured during acts of resistance. In Düsseldorf there were 18 detentions and 93 expulsions, which were fewer than last time. In Heinsberg, a security employee was injured in an altercation on the sidelines of a carnival event. The 43-year-old had initially refused two men access to a festival tent late on the evening of Women's Carnival.
