Minor remanded after attempted knife attack in Karlsruhe

Following a verbal argument at Stephanplatz in Karlsruhe, a minor is alleged to have stabbed toward the abdomen of a 19-year-old man with a knife during the night of 13 March. The man's jacket stopped the thrust and he was not injured. The minor had allegedly struck him in the face beforehand. After a witness intervened, the suspect fled and dropped the knife. Police officers provisionally arrested him after a short pursuit. A judge issued a detention order at the prosecution's request, and the minor has been remanded in custody.
