Police - Anti-Semitism commissioner investigates after brawl
Following an altercation between a Jewish tourist and a group of young people in Munich, the anti-Semitism commissioner of the Bavarian judiciary has opened an investigation. It is suspected that the 30-year-old, who was wearing a kippah as headgear, was subjected to anti-Semitic insults by the group of six. The initially verbal argument then turned into a physical altercation, as the police reported on Friday.
The 30-year-old was reportedly knocked to the ground and kicked on Wednesday night. He was treated as an outpatient in hospital with minor injuries. A man and a woman from the group were also treated for minor injuries. The police are now investigating the tourist on suspicion of intentional bodily harm and the suspects from the group on suspicion of dangerous bodily harm.
"In view of the circumstances of the crime, it can currently be assumed that the insults and acts of violence from the group have an anti-Semitic background," the police said. In addition to the anti-Semitism commissioner Andreas Franck, state security is also investigating.
