Funeral Procession for Murdered Lorenz: Honoring the Fallen Officer - Fatal Law Enforcement Gunfire, Commemorating the Deceased Lorenz?
A group called "Justice for Lorenz" is advocating for the creation of a memorial in Oldenburg, Germany, following a police shooting incident that occurred on Easter Saturday night. The campaign, which is focused on erecting a memorial for a young man who was killed by police gunfire, is using the Instagram platform to gather support for their cause.
The tragic incident took place in the city's pedestrian zone, leaving the young man with gunshot wounds to the thigh, back, hip, and head. Despite medical efforts, he later succumbed to his injuries in the hospital. However, his identity has not been revealed.
The official opening of the new area, previously a tax office, has been scheduled for this Friday, August 15. Transformed into a lively, nature-friendly meeting place named "Oldenburg" on 5,700 square meters, the location of the proposed memorial, Lorenz Platz, is in the heart of the city.
The city's Social Media and Participation team is calling for suggestions for the naming of the area. In a unique approach, a jury will select the five most beautiful names, which will be put to an online poll. However, it's important to note that, as of now, there is no official information available regarding an online poll for naming the new recreational area or efforts for a memorial related to the Oldenburg police shooting and Lorenz.
A spokesperson for the group, "Justice for Lorenz," has confirmed the appeal for a memorial for the young man. The group is using the Instagram platform to gather support for their campaign, appealing to the city's residents and visitors to join them in their quest for justice.
As the investigation continues, the public prosecutor's office has not yet decided whether to bring charges against the accused police officer. The city authorities have not released any official statements regarding the campaign or the proposed memorial.
For those seeking more detailed information about community or municipal actions in Oldenburg regarding this incident, it is recommended to follow local news sources, municipal websites, or official announcements directly from Oldenburg city authorities.
