Hamburg - Shots fired two years ago: Police looking for fourth perpetrator

Following shootings near the Hotel Vier Jahreszeiten in Hamburg in April 2022, Police and Prosecutor's Office are publicly searching for a fourth suspect with a photo. The man was brought into the focus of investigative authorities due to his appearance and behavior, according to Hamburg Police on Friday.

Due to this, he is considered urgently suspicious and may have made a significant contribution to the crime. Since the identification of the man could not be achieved through previous measures, a judge issued a warrant for public notification. The State Criminal Police and Prosecutor's Office are investigating.

The incident occurred when several men argued in the Hamburg city center. A 35-year-old man was injured in the altercation, primarily through gunshots. The alleged shooter had been arrested in the previous year. Two other suspects were temporarily taken into custody.

Press release of the Police

The public prosecutor's office in Hamburg is actively involved in the search for the fourth suspect, as they believe he may have played a crucial role in the recent crime near the Hotel Vier Jahreszeiten. Despite efforts from the police and previous measures, the identification of this individual remains elusive, leading to the issuance of a public notification warrant.
