Another Attack in Munich S-Bahn

Fri 26th Feb, 2010

Two teenagers attacked a drunk man in the Munich S-Bahn, insulted him, injured him with a beer bottle and stole his mobile phone. None of the passengers came to help.

Eight passengers had been sitting in the compartment during the teenagers' crime. No one came to the aid of the injured, bleeding man and not one of them alerted the police. This case happened on Wednesday afternoon on the S2 between Central Station and Allach.

When he came to his senses, he left the S-Bahn station at Allach and found that his phone was gone. Only there did someone notice the injured man and agreed to help him. She initially treated his injuries in the toilet on the station and then the paramedics and police arrived. The police are now looking for the offenders.
