Emergency services are also looking for one of the attackers with a helicopter
The police are still looking for the second attacker. A police helicopter was also in action over Ulm. The man probably fled the scene in a gray Opel with Günzburger license plates (GZ).
The crime happened near a bar in the eastern part of Ulm. A bloodstain could still be seen on the sidewalk in front of parked cars in the evening. After the crime, the landlord stood in front of his bar and reported that he only found out about the dispute in the immediate vicinity of the bar when the police drove up with several cars and blue lights. Heavily armed police officers walked past the restaurant.
