Baden-Württemberg: Group attacks and threatens 16-year-olds in Göggingen

Göggingen (dpa / lsw) - Seven to eight young people are said to have attacked and robbed a 16-year-old in Göggingen (Ostalbkreis). The group caught him on the way home and asked him to hand over money and other valuables, the police said on Tuesday. The perpetrators then held him down and punched him in the face. The 16-year-old suffered minor injuries. One of the perpetrators is said to have threatened with a knife.

The robbers were therefore mostly dressed in black and masked. After the robbery on Tuesday evening, several patrol cars and a police helicopter searched for the escaped perpetrators. The search was initially unsuccessful.
