A dispute comes to a bloody end in Ulm: several people are injured.
The police used a helicopter to find those involved.
Ulm – Several people were injured in a clash in Ulm on Monday evening.
A police spokesman initially spoke of three to four wounded.
How serious the injuries are, must be clarified in the hospital.
According to initial findings, no one was in danger.
A knife or similar object was involved in the dispute, the spokesman said.
Ulm's "Südwest Presse" reported online that a man allegedly attacked several people with a machete.
The police spokesman could not immediately confirm this.
So far there is no information about the murder weapon.
"We assume that those involved fled in a car," said the spokesman.
Among other things, a helicopter is used to search for them.
It was initially unclear how many people it was.
The crime scene was cordoned off over a large area.
According to the police, the crime happened shortly before 6 p.m. near a bar in the eastern part of Ulm.
A bloodstain could still be seen on the sidewalk in front of parked cars in the evening.
After the crime, the landlord stood in front of his bar and reported that he only found out about the dispute in the immediate vicinity of the bar when the police drove up with several cars and blue lights.
Heavily armed police officers walked past the restaurant.

The area is not known for criminal gang clashes or anything like that, according to the police spokesman.
The police gave the all-clear shortly after the crime.
There is no danger to other people, said the spokesman.
According to initial police findings, the dispute broke out between several members of a group or two groups, it said.
Details remained vague.
"These are the few findings that we now have," said the police spokesman.
The investigations of his colleagues on site had only just begun.
