Criminality - Nightly fight: man killed by stabbings
A young man was found severely injured in a courtyard in Wuppertal after a nightly fight and later died. The 24-year-old had multiple stab wounds and was revived by police officers, later by paramedics. He was taken to the hospital but could not be saved, according to police and prosecutors.
The Police were alerted by a neighbor in the night to Thursday about a dispute between several people. Three suspected perpetrators were mentioned. An initial search in the vicinity was unsuccessful. The investigators asked witnesses for tips.
The case of the young man's death in the courtyard has been classified as a homicide due to the high level of criminality in Wuppertal, part of North Rhine-Westphalia. The investigators are examining the cutting stroke marks on the victim's body as potential evidence. After the incident, the police increased their presence in the area, hoping to deter further instances of violence or potential retaliation.
