Alleged Attempted Double Homicide: Ex-husband, age 42, and son, age 10, under investigation for a violent crime.

A family tragedy unfolded in the Leipzig district of Reudnitz-Thonberg on Monday evening, as authorities investigate a suspected homicide and attempted murder.

The incident took place at an apartment on Fritz-Hanschmann-Straße, where two individuals were found injured. A blood-soaked woman, aged 42, was discovered outside the house, while a severely injured 10-year-old boy was found inside the apartment.

Sadly, the woman later died in the hospital due to her injuries. The boy, fortunately, is now out of danger and is currently receiving treatment in a clinic. He has undergone surgery and is still under medical care.

The suspected perpetrator in this tragic incident is the former partner of the deceased woman and the father of the child. The 25-year-old man, who holds Rwandan nationality, is strongly suspected of murder and attempted murder. However, his name is not disclosed in the available sources.

It is believed that the two injured individuals are the mother and son involved in the incident. A German suspect (37) was arrested at the scene, and an investigating judge at Leipzig District Court has issued an arrest warrant for him. The suspect has been taken to a prison for further proceedings.

Investigations into the course of the incident are still ongoing, with authorities seeking to understand the full details of what transpired. No further details are available at this time.

The suspected perpetrator is reportedly the same individual who was involved in the killing of his ex-girlfriend in Fellbach, Germany. This previous incident remains under investigation.

The authorities are urging anyone with information regarding this tragic incident to come forward and contact local authorities. As the investigation continues, the community of Reudnitz-Thonberg is left to mourn the loss of a fellow resident and to hope for the full recovery of the injured child.
