Bloody raids shake Dresden: robbery with knives and excesses of violence!

The city center of Dresden is currently the focus of the police after several incidents leave the security situation in the city in view in the past few days. On June 1, 2025, there were several attacks at the weekend that worry about the population. In particular, the incidents in the outer Neustadt and at Postplatz raise questions about security in public spaces.

Last night a 20-year-old man was attacked by three perpetrators in the Alaunstrasse. These pushed the victim during a night walk, struck him and threatened him with a knife. The robbery went lightly, but the victim suffered minor injuries. The police were able to arrest the suspects a little later, such as the Saxon reported.

But there were also turbulent scenes in the outer new town. In the night of Friday, several people were attacked by a group. Among the victims was a 26-year-old who was attacked and beaten by the perpetrators with irritant gas. Another 36-year-old also suffered strokes, and a 19-year-old was attacked with bottles. The police were able to arrest a 23-year-old Tunisian and secure two cell phones.

at another crime scene, the postplace, a 25-year-old man was victim of a robbery. A 33-year-old was threatened with a knife and made it easier for 200 euros. Fortunately, this victim was also unharmed, and the perpetrator was arrested nearby. All of these attacks lead to a general concern among the Dresdeners who long for more security in their districts.

alcoholic drivers and traffic accidents

In addition to the raids, the high number of alcoholic cyclists and other road users also ensures headlines. An 18-year-old fell with 1.6 per thousand with an e-scooter, while several cyclists also plunged alcoholized. A 19-year-old driver even landed in the ditch after he was caught with over 1.1 per thousand at the wheel.

The situation on the streets is just as alarming, where there were several accidents that demanded injuries. For example, a 66-year-old cyclist was injured in Kleinpestitz. A regular bus had a collision in which five women were slightly injured. Such incidents illustrate that traffic safety remains an important topic for the city.

In addition to these incidents, there were burglaries into several shops on Thursday, including a beverage market. Unknown people stole numerous tobacco goods worth 2,000 euros. Furthermore, two vehicles, a motorhome and a BMW, were stolen with a total value of 146,000 euros at night.

The new attacks and traffic accidents give the police a lot to do in Dresden, and it is to be hoped that the security situation will soon improve. The officials are in the process of collecting results and hope for information from the population in order to be accountable to those responsible.
