- The Commission has decided to initiate the procedure laid down in Article 93 (2) of the Treaty.
Following a knife attack** in Stuttgart's city center, a man was seriously injured, and two more suspects have been arrested. They are currently in custody, accused of attempted manslaughter, according to a police spokesperson. The 22 and 26-year-old men were arrested at their homes in Stuttgart.
A 17-year-old was arrested immediately after the incident and is also in custody on the same charge.
The three alleged perpetrators are said to have gotten into an argument with a five-person group on Tuesday on Königstraße. In a back courtyard, they allegedly attacked the other group, according to investigators. A 37-year-old was injured so severely that he initially was in life-threatening condition. Two other men, aged 24 and 47, suffered minor injuries. Two women from the attacked group remained unharmed. The cause of the argument is still unknown.
The knife attack resulted in a 37-year-old being in life-threatening condition. The two recently arrested suspects are also accused of being involved in this severe knife attack.
