Adolescent contemplated potential acts of violence against others?

In the early hours of Tuesday morning (5 a.m.) on August 05, a cafe in Frankfurt-Bockenheim experienced a fire. According to the latest updates, the incident took place at the cafe, which was occupied by five individuals at the time, including the owner.

The police have confirmed that a 15-year-old Dutch national is the main suspect in the case. It is alleged that the teenager threw a flammable object inside the cafe, causing the fire. Following the incident, the suspect fled the scene.

However, the motive behind the arson remains unclear at this point. The police are actively investigating the incident to gather more information.
