Man threatens several people with a knife in Munich
On Wintersteinstraße in Munich, a 35-year-old man allegedly held a knife toward several people after an initially verbal dispute. Police were notified of a larger altercation on Tuesday, 29 September 2026, at around 18:30 and checked approximately 15 people at the scene. A 46-year-old woman said she had suffered a minor injury from blunt force; no link between her injury and the knife is established. Officers used coercive measures in isolated instances while establishing identities, without injuring anyone in the process. A baseball bat was also found nearby, but whether it was used remains under investigation. Those present were released after the police measures. Criminal police are investigating a threat and suspected aggravated assault.
