Overview

  • The Freinacht on May 1, 2025, was notably calm in Landkreis Aichach-Friedberg, with no criminally relevant incidents reported.
  • Police in Aichach received calls about moved objects, but these fell within the bounds of traditional pranks and did not escalate into serious offenses.
  • The Polizeipräsidium Oberbayern Nord recorded 263 operations, including 28 noise complaints, eight property damage cases, and four bodily injury incidents.
  • Despite a higher number of operations compared to the previous year, authorities considered the night relatively uneventful and without regional concentration of incidents.
  • The peaceful Freinacht contrasts with earlier public safety challenges during Halloween and New Year’s Eve, which have fueled debates on stricter security measures.
