A devastating assault on football fans shook the railway line between Löwenberg and Gransee on Saturday morning! A special train that was on the way to Rostock with around 800 passionate followers was attacked by a bullying mob. The incident put the authorities on alert and raises questions about the safety of sporting events!

The alarm bells sounded at around 9:30 a.m. when the emergency control center of Deutsche Bahn AG informed the federal police about the threatening attack. About a hundred hooded attackers were looking for the confrontation and threw the train with stones and even pyrotechnic objects. In a desperate attempt to defuse the situation, a traveler pulled the emergency brake, which caused the train to stop on the freely route, between Löwenberg and Gransee.

chaotic scenes on the train!

The damage was enormous! The attackers had smashed several windows of the wagons and examining the damage is not an easy task. Thanks to good cooperation with Deutsche Bahn, the special train was able to continue its trip with some delays around 1:30 p.m. But not without consequences! About 300 fans had to switch to a subsequent intercity, and not without a pinch of trouble and excitement!

Investigations in progress!

The first reports speak of three slightly injured people on the train, who, however, waived medical help. The federal police did not pass the time and initiated several criminal proceedings. Suspected property damage, dangerous interference with rail traffic, dangerous bodily harm and last but not least a breach of the peace - the list is long!

A crucial breakthrough: A 20-year-old German has already been recognized and identified! He is suspected of being actively involved in the attack. But the investigation is far from over. The Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania police have set up a point of view-twenty information has already been received and have been carefully examined.

Around 60 federal police officers were mobilized to control the situation. A explosive incident that shows the tension between football, security and fan culture!
