Moment of quiet reflection - Quiet tribute dedicated to slain Mannheim policeman.
Workers from the Görlitz Police Department gathered in their courtyard or at their stations and districts in Görlitz and Bautzen to remember and show sympathy. They expressed their sorrow, as a spokesperson confirmed when asked. "The police are in mourning and unable to speak."
The police in the Free State then called for a moment of silence across the country, following the lead of the Baden-Württemberg Police. This was in honor of a 25-year-old Afghan who had harmed five members of the Islam-critical movement Pax Europa and police officers with a knife on Mannheim market square the previous Friday. The unfortunate man suffered fatal injuries over the weekend.
