Update from September 3, 3:14 p.m

YouTube star
in a Nuremberg skate facility, he now has a procedure on his neck.
Claudius Vertesi

expect
a
fine
, said a police spokesman on Thursday.
The reason: Vertesi called on social networks to come to the appearance.
According to the spokesman, more than 500 children and young people between the ages of eight and 15 followed the call.
A spokeswoman for the Nuremberg Public Order Office said the incident would be carefully examined.
In a cautious assessment, she assumed that Vertesi would have to reckon with a fine in the low four-digit range, and possibly only in the three-digit range.
Vertesi has since canceled its planned appearances in other Bavarian locations.
On
he announced on Thursday that, after consulting the municipalities, he could not come to Plattling (Deggendorf district) and Germering near Munich.
The same applies to the Upper Bavarian communities of Geltendorf, Vaterstetten and Burghausen.
He wants to catch up on the appearances in the skate parks.
