Police Urgently Seeking Witnesses
The Landespolizeiinspektion Jena is currently conducting intensive investigations into dangerous bodily harm. Exactly how the man sustained his serious injuries is still the subject of ongoing police work. Since the background of the crime is currently still unclear, the officers are dependent on the assistance of the public. Persons who have made relevant observations are urgently requested to contact the police by telephone or in writing.
Background: The Paradiespark in Jena
The so-called “Paradies” is the most extensive and well-known green space in the urban area of Jena. Located directly on the banks of the Saale, the park serves thousands of residents and students daily as a local recreation area. Due to the high frequency of visitors, especially in spring and summer, there is a high volume of passers-by, which increases the chance of potential eyewitnesses for police investigations. The police generally advise keeping a distance during observed confrontations in public spaces, not putting oneself in danger, and immediately dialing the emergency number.
