Overview

• The incident occurred on August 13 at about 21:35, when a 63-year-old was pushed down several flights of stairs at Pasing station after exiting an S6 train.
• The victim sustained a wrist contusion and abrasions to his knee and elbow as the assailant continued to attack him on the steps.
• Two travelers intervened; one threw the attacker down with a judo‑like move, the other restrained his forearms, then released after being bitten, and the suspect fled.
• Video analysis indicated the same man had threatened and spat at two people around 21:10 at the Karlsplatz/Stachus S‑Bahn stop, with a helper’s smartphone recording aiding the inquiry.
• Bundespolizei are investigating for dangerous bodily harm, have issued a detailed description (about 30, 1.70 m, bald, goatee, glasses, white T‑shirt, black shorts, yellow Asics), and are appealing for the two helpers, the two men from Karlsplatz, and other witnesses to contact 089/51550‑0.
