- Following the school tragedy, legal proceedings for attempted homicide ensue.
Six months after the school alarm incident at a Wuppertal high school, a 17-year-old pupil stands trial for allegedly trying to murder four of his classmates. Today, at 9:30 AM, the juvenile hearing commences in secret at the Wuppertal Regional Court.
As per the accusations, the youngster, under the influence of a significantly impaired mental state, reportedly attacked his peers with a knife before slicing into his own chest. Whether this state is linked to a mental illness, as suggested by psychiatrists, remains undisclosed by a court representative, who maintains silence to safeguard the juvenile's privacy.
The school underwent a thorough lockdown and search on February 22. Four students were left with stab wounds or cuts, with three of them suffering from the psychological trauma of shock. The accused is believed to have inflicted the most severe wounds upon himself.
The incident at the high school involved allegations of attempted murder, classified as a serious crime. Despite the youngster's mental state, he faces charges for the crime committed against his classmates.
