In the Berlin district of Schöneberg, a 42-year-old man was killed and two other men – including an apparently uninvolved cyclist – were injured on Thursday evening. A homicide squad and the public prosecutor’s office have taken over the investigation.
The incident, which may be related to the red light district, took place around 1 a.m. According to the fire department, one of the men was seriously injured and the second slightly injured. The two injured, aged 42 and 44, were taken to clinics, operated on and hospitalized.
Even an uninvolved cyclist is a victim
The third man was resuscitated on the spot to no avail and died on the way to a hospital, according to the police. According to the prosecutor’s initial findings, one of the injured was a companion of the man who was fatally shot. In the case of the second injured man, a cyclist, there are many indications that he was a bystander.
The Public Prosecution Service initially did not confirm the reports that a car and a bus stop also showed bullet marks. But the shots were quite spread out, according to a spokesperson. How many were handed in and what weapon was used in the crime remained unclear. The perpetrator or perpetrators are on the run.
The crime scene was extensively secured
The background to the incident is still unclear. A fire truck was called in to support the rescue efforts. The police have cordoned off the area extensively. The morning after the shooting, the streets near the crime scene were closed to traffic due to police operations.
