Overview

• Iris Stalzer of the SPD was found with multiple stab wounds and is reported to be in life‑threatening condition.
• WDR reports that her son discovered her injured in her apartment after the stabbing.
• Other media report the assault occurred outside her home, so the location and sequence of events remain disputed.
• FOCUS, citing Bild, reports she told her son she was attacked by several men, which has not been confirmed by authorities.
• Polizei Hagen has confirmed only an active deployment in Herdecke, as a large police and emergency response is reported and investigators are weighing political and personal motives.
