Ambush from the Rear

In the heart of Bielefeld, Germany, a disturbing incident took place on the morning of 4:25 AM. Two young men, aged 22, were walking home near Rabenhof, Donauschwaben, and Staufer streets when they were suddenly attacked by a group of 4 to 6 individuals of Eastern European appearance.

The initial assailant was described as approximately 18 to 30 years old, standing at 195 cm tall, with a boxer's haircut and a muscular build. Another assailant also joined in the attack. The victims were held from behind and the attackers stopped when they stopped resisting. Fortunately, paramedics were called to the scene and treated the victims for minor injuries.

The police have been actively searching for the attackers in the vicinity, but their efforts have proven unsuccessful so far.
