According to the police, at least four people were seriously injured in an attack in a gym in the old town of Duisburg. The police assume at least one perpetrator. She initially left it open whether there are still one or more perpetrators on the run. “There is still no arrest,” a spokesman for the Essen police told the German news agency on Thursday evening. A “stabbing or slashing weapon” was used. The injured have been taken to a hospital. Background investigations were underway.
Police wrote on Twitter: “According to the current status, a person has injured other people with an object.” Accordingly, around 5:40 p.m., the first emergency calls came in to the Duisburg police.

According to the police, the detectives searched and secured the gym. Witnesses who were training on the scene at the time of the crime are currently being questioned. The studio was now secured, it said shortly after 8 p.m.
According to a dpa reporter, heavily armed special police units were on the scene. Eyewitnesses were questioned by police at a nearby restaurant, he reported. One still had his sports bag with him.
“Bild” reported that the police are running an amok. The perpetrator or perpetrators must therefore still be a fugitive. (dpa/aargauerzeitung.ch)
