BPOL NRW: Strangle and strike with a container

Dortmund, Germany - The Dortmund Police have initiated an investigation into a violent incident that occurred outside a fast-food restaurant at Dortmund Central Station on June 26 at 1:40 AM. The incident, which resulted in a severe head wound to one of the participants, has prompted the Federal Police to take action.

According to reports, a fight ensued between two individuals, leading to the use of a glass bottle by one of the parties. A 33-year-old witness stated that he saw a homeless man strike a 23-year-old with a glass bottle on the head.

The Federal Police officers, upon arriving at the scene, issued bans from Dortmund Central Station to both aggressors involved in the fight. They also secured the surveillance footage of the incident for further investigation.

The man with the severe head wound is known to the police from previous incidents and was born in Lünen. However, the 26-year-old man, who allegedly used the glass bottle, chose to remain silent when informed of his rights in the criminal proceedings.

The Dortmund Public Prosecutor's Office is currently searching for the whereabouts of the 26-year-old man with the severe head wound.
