- On New Year's Day, a 28-year-old man was physically attacked by a previously unknown violent criminal in the passenger tunnel at the Ostbahnhof in Munich.

The Federal Police reported.

Among other things, the attacker kicked his victim several times in the head and body.

Then he fled unrecognized.

The federal police are now looking for witnesses who can provide information about the course of events or help clarify the identity of the attacker.

Munich: Violent attack at the Ostbahnhof - kicks in the head of the defenseless victim

The federal police were only called by the rescue workers, who had rushed to the help of the injured after an emergency call at the Ostbahnhof. According to initial information, the victim of the violent attack was a Syrian citizen who was embroiled in a verbal argument by an unknown person in front of a fast-food restaurant at Ostbahnhof at around 1:40 a.m. This culminated in a physical attack in which the young Syrian fell to the ground after being punched a few times. There the violent criminal, recognizable as a man, kicked the defenseless person's head and body several times. Only when the attacker escorted him, who was also unknown, did the attacker let go of his victim and move away from the crime scene.

As camera recordings show, the incident was observed by several other travelers who, however, did not intervene or rushed to the aid of the injured after the attacker had escaped.
