- Enhanced law enforcement presence at the local carnival following a knife-wielding individual.
After a tip off about a guy wielding a blade, authorities have beefed up their presence at Bruhl's city celebration. A spectator claimed spotting a chap, thought to be between 20 and 25 years old, brandishing a blade and uttering threats close to a lake earlier today, the police said.
Though there seems to be no direct link between Bruhl's city festival and the reported alarming incident in the city center, the police have beefed up their presence considerably. The manhunt is on, and the police are currently grilling the witness. The general public is encouraged to bring to light any suspicious activities straight away.
Last Friday, a 32-year-old German lady went on a stabbing spree on a city festival shuttle bus in Siegen, leaving at least 6 victims, 3 of them gravely wounded. A week back, a man went on a rampage at a city festival in Solingen, leaving 3 dead and 8 wounded with a knife. The main suspect, a 26-year-old Syrian, is currently in custody.
Given the escalating incidents of violence at city festivals, the authorities are on high alert. Crucially, the police are urging the public to report any instances of crime promptly.
