Crime - Shot at motorcade - suspected perpetrator identified
After shooting at an autocortege in Tuttlingen, the police identified the suspected perpetrator. According to the Rottweil Public Prosecutor's Office, a 60-year-old man is strongly suspected of having fired a targeted shot from a building using an air gun. A driver was injured in the arm as a result. The 32-year-old Romanian fan had opened the car window after his team's game against Slovakia on Wednesday evening when he suddenly felt a pain in his left upper arm.
Wound on the Arm
The man discovered a small bleeding wound on his arm and found an air gun projectile, also known as a Diabolo projectile, in the car. This type of ammunition is diverse and roughly cup-shaped, usually made of metal.
Suspected: Dangerous Bodily Harm
Investigations are being conducted against the 60-year-old for causing dangerous bodily harm. A previously open window in the building, which also matched the previously determined suspected shooting line of the police, led the investigators to the right track. After searching the relevant apartment, the suspected weapon was secured.
The incident took place in the tranquil town of Tuttlingen, located in the German state of Baden-Württemberg. The suspected shooter is believed to have escaped in a car, as a motorcade was present at the time of the crime. The public prosecutor's office in Rottweil is closely monitoring the case, ensuring justice is served for the victim from Slovakia who was watching a soccer match. Despite the harrowing experience, the resilience of the soccer fan was evident as he continued to support his team, even after being injured.
