Taxi driver in Leinfelden brutally attacked – police are looking for witnesses!
On Saturday night, a 62-year-old taxi driver was found seriously injured in Leinfelden-Echterdingen, in the Esslingen district. A resident discovered the injured man around 2:30 a.m. on Stangenstrasse, next to his taxi. The man had serious head injuries and initially received initial medical treatment on site before being taken to hospital. The criminal police assume a violent crime, but have not yet released any information about whether the taxi driver was responsive or could provide details about his condition. In addition, forensics were carried out on site and the police are looking for possible witnesses to the incident, reports Tagesschau.de.
The investigation is still in its early stages and there is currently no public information about the man's health. The police have now questioned the neighborhood in Leinfelden-Echterdingen in order to obtain further information that could lead to the investigation of the case. The situation is tense and it remains to be seen what details will emerge in the coming days.
Animal cruelty in the region
Another disturbing incident in the same city is currently under investigation for possible animal cruelty. A cat named Neve was returned to his owners mutilated after being missing for two days. On the evening of July 20th, Neve was found injured in a bush. It turned out that his tail fur had been completely removed, but the skin was not frayed or injured. His owners, Tina Martusciello and Luca Bertoneri, suspect that their cat was being trafficked, so they have offered a reward of 500 euros for information that can help catch the possible perpetrator Stuttgart News.
The case caused a stir in the neighborhood and was described as unusual by Police Chief Inspector Christian Wörner. Despite questioning neighbors, there is currently no concrete information about the circumstances under which Neve was injured. His tail ultimately had to be amputated in an emergency operation. In order to protect their other cats, the owners plan to only keep them indoors in the future and to take them out with a harness and a leash.
