Violence in the Volkspark: 35-year-old seriously injured after a knife attack!
In the night of July 20, 2025, there were several violent disputes in the Berlin district of Gesundbrunnen, which shake the feeling of security again in the region. Around 10:50 p.m., a 35-year-old man in the Humboldthain Volkspark was attacked by a group of about seven, which was armed with baseball bats and pepper sprays. As the Police reported , the man suffered several stab wounds in the lower back area and had to be taken to a hospital for outpatient treatment. The attackers fled undetected, and a specialist commissioner of Police Directorate 1 (North) has taken up the investigation into dangerous bodily harm.
The incident in Gesundbrunnen is part of a worrying series of acts of violence that occurred in various districts of Berlin that evening. In Kreuzberg and Neukölln, two men were injured by shots. A 26-year-old man in Bergmannstrasse was shot, but is now out of danger. A 39-year-old man was injured on Sonnenallee while he was standing on his motorcycle and had to be operated on. These incidents throw a light on the increasing dynamics of violence in the capital, such as the reported.
a fatal argument
The argument that cost a 30-year-old man on Bastianstrasse was particularly tragic. He was seriously injured in a dispute and presumably died of a stab injury in the hospital. The police initially spoke of 40 to 60 involved, but did not confirm this number and referred to "many" participants from "certain criminal milieus". A murder commission of the State Criminal Police Office has taken over the investigation.
In a further discussion in Prinzenallee, a 17-year-old man was shot several times by a masked man and suffered life-threatening injuries, which are now no longer acute. The background of these physical arguments are still unclear and the police are examining a possible connection between the incidents. In addition, there is also a look for a single offender in relation to the shots on Friday evening.
demand for a knife ban
In view of the increasing acts of violence and in particular the use of knives in group conflicts, the police union (GdP) has called for a general ban on knife in public space. The Berlin state chairman of the GdP, Stephan Weh, expressed great concerns about increasing violence. These incidents illustrate the need to take preventive measures to ensure the security of citizens.The events of the past few days are shadowing a shadow on the Berlin night scenes and illustrate the challenges that the security authorities face. The police are required to find the perpetrators and increase public security, while the urban society has to look for solutions to counteract the escalation of violence.
