Two individuals, aged 36 and 44, were each given a prison sentence of two years and ten months following a shooting incident in Frankfurt's city center[2]. This verdict was handed down by the jury chamber of the Frankfurt Regional Court, which found them guilty of attempted extortion and weapons violations. The charge of manslaughter was dropped due to a lack of intent to kill[2].
The crime took place on a snack bar terrace near the Zeil shopping street. The 36-year-old fired eight shots from a pistol, targeting the ground and the air as a means to emphasize their demand for repayment of a high-interest loan of 25,000 euros[2]. Regrettably, the borrower was struck in the foot by a ricochet[2].
During their initial trial, the defendants were sentenced to three years and four months and two years and ten months, respectively[2]. Subsequently, the Federal Supreme Court overturned this verdict on technical grounds[2]. The second verdict underlined the equal contributions of both defendants to the crime, justifying the identical sentence[2]. The final verdict is yet to be confirmed by the defense, who requested suspended sentences[2].
