The number of violent crimes committed by minors is increasing in Munich. The police and Mayor Dieter Reiter are concerned about the development – and want to counteract it with new preventive measures.
This summer, the police reported acts of violence by children and young people almost every day: robberies, stabbings, outright torture attacks. Five young people watched a 15-year-old girl at Rosenkavalierplatz in Bogenhausen, beat her, kicked her and demanded money. Later, a twelve-year-old girl fell into the gang’s control; She was also abused and threatened with a knife.
