Cologne: Seven arrests at the carnival

2019-11-12T00:52:51.778Z


The carnival season is on - and at the beginning the security forces in the strongholds had a lot to do. A particularly drastic attack with a cable tie was in Cologne.



At the start of the carnival season in Cologne, there have been several dangerous attacks on revelers. A stranger has a cable tie around the neck of a carnival from behind and pulled tight. A doctor in the medical tent freed the 22-year-old from the plastic band, as the police announced on Monday evening.

In their investigation into the afternoon's deed, a paramedic described to the detective that there had been a similar case in the early morning.

Two young men are also suspected of having thrown building material remainders from a skyscraper in Cologne and thereby injured a passerby. One of the "lumps" hit an 18-year-old carnival, who was slightly injured. Policemen arrested two 17- and 19-year-old men who were in the house.

By late evening were 82 place referrals pronounced and seven people were arrested, it was said in the carnival record of the Cologne police. There have been, inter alia, 29 personal injury offenses. Criminal or regulatory complaints were filed against several drunk e-scooter users. Several times, according to police, the truck driving ban was disregarded.

A passer-by has been caught in the carnival chaos in the southern city of Cologne by a light rail and seriously injured. The train driver had suffered a shock, as did his colleague, who controlled the oncoming train and saw the disaster. The route was initially blocked. The 34-year-old woman was not costumed and therefore probably not a carnival.

The carnival season started on November 11th at 11:11. In Düsseldorf, "traditional" Hoppeditz awoke after nine months of deep sleep traditionally. In Cologne presents a new triumvirate. The police had accompanied the events with a considerable safety contingent. On the 26th of February the carnival season is over again on Ash Wednesday.
