In the night from Friday to Saturday, a previously unknown perpetrator had written slogans on a concrete wall in front of the main entrance of a grocery store in Vier-Häuser-Street in Schramberg.Using a black felt-tip pen, the anti-Semitic slogan “Don’t buy from Jews you social misfits” was inscribed. An identical text passage had already been found at the same location on the night of November 12 to 13. It is assumed that there was a connection between the two incidents. The Schramberg police are investigating. Persons who have made suspicious perceptions are asked to contact the Schramberg police station by calling 07422/2701-0.

Success of the Würzburg criminal police in their search for a sexual offence in the Zellerau district: As the Lower Franconian police headquarters and the Würzburg public prosecutor’s office reported on Friday afternoon, the investigators arrested a suspect on Thursday. The 15-year-old is now in custody.The teenager is accused of raping a 19-year-old girl who was on her way home on the night of the 7th of December. According to police, the young woman had got off a bus at the “Bürgerbräu” bus stop at about 2:40 a.m. A few meters further on, she had encountered the perpetrator in the street Mainaustrasse, who then pushed her against a wall. “Subsequently, he touched her indecently in the genital area and abused her sexually,” the report states further.The young woman had “vehemently defended herself” and “loudly shouted for help”. Only after she had bitten the perpetrator’s lip did he let go of her and fled. After an emergency call was received, several patrols immediately went to the scene of the crime, according to the police. A large-scale search for the perpetrator was initially unsuccessful.In the course of further investigations the 15-year-old came into focus of the investigators. “Because of the urgent suspicion of rape, an arrest warrant was issued against the teenager as late as Thursday,” the police and the public prosecutor’s office stated. The arrest took place at the Würzburg district court: there he was in the dock for another offence. During the arrest, the 15-year-old had offered “considerable resistance” and injured an officer of the criminal police.As a police spokesman confirmed to the press, the young Syrian is known to the police in connection with the investigation of juvenile delinquency in the downtown area of Würzburg.These crimes are usually committed by groups with an above-average proportion of refugees. The 15-year-old has so far been charged with theft and assault.

In the period from the 1st of December 2019 to the 23rd of December 2019, two leaded stained glass church windows at the parish church of St. Martin in Perl-Nennig (photo above) were smashed by hitherto unknown persons. Property damage in the amount of approx. 2,000 euros was caused. On Monday, on December the 23rd, 2019, a glass pane of the entrance door of the Lutwinus Chapel in Mettlach-Weiten was smashed in. According to a witness, she heard the shattering of the glass pane at about 03:20 pm. Afterwards four youths (three boys and one girl) came from the direction of the chapel, wearing hoods. At present, it cannot be ruled out that young people may be involved in the damage to property. Further damage to property occurred to the detriment of the parish of Beckingen, where the glass pane of the entrance door to the Catholic Youth Club Erbringen-Hargarten was damaged in the period from 09:00 p.m. on the 20th of December 2019 to 11:30 a.m. on the 21st of December 2019.

It was on Christmas Eve when residents on Alstadener Street in Oberhausen, shortly after midnight, were torn from sleep by loud honking and disturbed during their sleep. Two residents then approached the 28-year-old Opel car driver and asked for silence. As a reaction, the driver, a man from Albania, honked again and then raced off with a cavalier start. Due to the strong acceleration, the Opel crashed into the oncoming lane, where an oncoming driver had to brake hard to avoid a collision.After a few minutes, the Albanian returned on foot and bothered the local residents, who had meanwhile called the police. The man screamed loudly and insulted the residents continuously. The police took the man, who clearly smelled of alcohol, to the police station where a blood sample was taken. They seized his driver’s license and forbade him to further drive in the Opel, which they found parked only one street away with the engine still operating.

The number of Salafists in North Rhine-Westphalia has slightly increased this year by 100 to a total of 3200 Islamist extremists. According to the Office for the Protection of the Constitution, girls and women in particular are becoming more radical. They are replacing extremists who have disappeared from the scene after banning their associations, criminal proceedings and repression by security authorities. In particular, the activities of Salafist women in social networks have increased. According to the Office for the Protection of the Constitution, women who have departed, returned or stayed in Germany are increasingly ” violent and prepared to use violence”.In addition, the birth of children has led to the emergence of about 100 Salafist family groups. As a result, there is a danger that the women will raise their children in a fundamentalist and extremist manner.

Residents of the senior citizens’ centre on the banks of the river Ihme in Hanover complain about threats and harassment by drug dealers on their doorstep. According to the newspaper HAZ, one of the residents was called a “shit woman” and pelted with stones. She hardly dares to go out with her dog, she is quoted in the newspaper. Once one of these men passed by and whispered in her ear: “I’ll kill you, you’re dead.” Calls to the police and letters to the municipality and the German parliament have not been of any use so far. The police are coming, but the drug dealers will be back soon. Meanwhile, there is a list of signatures signed by forty residents.Two years ago, the Internet portal halloLindenLimmer.de already made an inquiry to the police about the violence of the dealer scene there on the banks of the river Ihme. Not much seems to have changed since then. Here the response of the police at that time: 

In recent years there has been an increase in the trade in narcotics in the area of Faustwiese and Glocksee.
The Hanover Police have these areas in particular focus.
We have already carried out checks and special operations there in the past and will continue to do so in the future. Since January 1, 2016, almost 60 investigations have been initiated at both of the above-mentioned locations due to trafficking in narcotics.The suspects/defendants in these investigations are of different origins.Most of them come from 13 African countries, the others include German and Turkish nationals.With regard to residence status, almost half of the suspects/defendants of the Btm trade are asylum seekers. Furthermore, German nationals and persons with other residence status, such as toleration, are also among the suspects/defendants. ( Statement of the police from February 14th, 2017).

Two years ago there was no talk of harassment and threats against passers-by and residents. Apparently, things have gotten worse since then.
