Verbal Altercation at BPOLI EF: Conflict Escalates to Physical Violence on Platform, Ending with Spitting Incident
In the bustling waiting area of Erfurt Central Station on Tuesday afternoon, a 54-year-old man found himself in an unsettling situation. According to his statements, he was smoking in the area, unaware that smoking is only permitted in designated spots.
The man claims that two women, who were later identified as Ukrainian, approached him and allegedly insulted him in a foreign language. This led to a verbal altercation, and at some point, he was allegedly spat at by one of the women.
The man found this incident disgusting and immediately reported it to the Federal Police. A patrol managed to locate the two women in a regional train. The man was informed that smoking in Erfurt Central Station is only permitted in designated areas.
The criminal investigation was initiated by the Federal Police, and the two women, aged 60 and 66, are under investigation for suspected bodily harm. However, the search results do not provide information about the two suspects involved in the alleged assault at Erfurt Central Station who were examined by the Federal Police.
The man was able to provide a good description of the two women to the authorities, which aided the police in their search and apprehension of the suspects. The incident serves as a reminder to respect all individuals in public spaces and to adhere to the station's smoking regulations.
