Another incident occurred on Tuesday morning on the school grounds of the community school "Grüner Campus Malchow" in Neu-Hohenschönhausen. Two young people, 16 and 18 years old, got into a violent argument before the class. The 16-year-old pulled a knife and injured the 18-year-old on her head and arm. The injured was taken to the hospital, while the 16-year-old, who was also slightly injured, was temporarily arrested and suspended. This argument took place before the first bell and was interrupted by teachers and students who intervened until the police arrived. The Berlin police specialist commissioned the investigation into assault and dangerous bodily harm, as bild.de reported.

The background of the dispute remains unclear, as well as the exact reasons for the ever more frequent knife attacks in schools. According to current statistics, there was an increase of almost 1500 cases of knife attacks in Germany last year. The situation is also worrying in Berlin; The police had to deploy an average of at least five missions every school last year, which reflects an enormous increase compared to previous years. In 2022, 6113 crimes were registered in Berlin, including 2344 assault. For 2023, a renewed significant increase in the number of cases is expected, such as merkur.de.

The chairman of the general school management association in Germany, Sven Winkler, also expresses concern about the increase in weapons, especially knives. Experts point out that family and social causes and low self -esteem may contribute to this violence. In all likelihood, the perception of violent incidents has become more intense, even if fewer incidents are documented today than 15 to 20 years ago.

Overall, violent development in Berlin remains an alarming topic that deals with both parents and schools. The police and society have to take action against this escalation to ensure security for all students and citizens.
