After a bloody crime in Middle Franconia with a dead teenager and a seriously injured woman, the 17-year-old brother of the dead man is in custody. He is said to have killed his sister and also attacked his mother. A police spokesman said an arrest warrant had been issued against him on Saturday. On Friday, the police found the 14-year-old’s body in a house in Weisendorf near Erlangen and then discovered the seriously injured mother outside the house. The police arrested the 17-year-old shortly after the body was found near the crime scene. In the course of the investigation, the suspicion against him was confirmed. According to initial findings, the girl was probably killed with a knife. The autopsy is scheduled to take place on Monday. Traces of blood were found on the doorbell of the neighboring house. The seriously injured mother may have tried to ask for help there, a police spokesman said. It will be determined how the traces of blood can be assigned and how they match the course of the crime. Neighbors and people close to the family were interviewed. Many aspects were still open on Sunday – for example, whether there was a dispute in the family. On the night of Saturday, flowers were laid in front of the semi-detached house in the 6800-inhabitant town and candles were lit. According to initial information from the police, the 41-year-old woman lived there alone with her children. She was taken to a hospital. According to the police, there is no danger to her life.
