On Friday evening, in Bremen, two young women aged 18 and 19 were attacked in a tram by a 25-year-old man after he allegedly saw them kissing. According to the police report, the man insulted them before punching one of them in the face, causing her to fall unconscious, at which point the attacker continued to kick her in the abdomen. The incident occurred around 11:00 PM, and a nearby police crew intervened, stopping the tram and detaining the suspect, who is a Romanian citizen.
Authorities mentioned that the man had a criminal record, and a case for bodily harm has been opened against him. The case is also being investigated by Staatsschutz, responsible for hate-motivated crimes. The two young women were taken to the hospital but were able to leave after treatment. The police are analyzing surveillance footage and are looking for witnesses to the incident.
