Police Boost Presence at Two Saalekreis Schools After Reports of Adults Approaching Children

Authorities say there is currently no indication of criminal relevance.

Overview

  • Reports involve children at Evangelische Grundschule Martin Luther in Oppin and Bergschule in Landsberg being addressed by unknown adults and allegedly drawn toward a car.
  • Local police increased visibility around the schools, are reviewing both incidents, and note the circumstances differ between the two cases.
  • Officers say no child was physically coerced and, based on current information, the cases do not meet criminal thresholds.
  • Schools delivered age-appropriate briefings on handling contact from strangers, and teaching and after-school staff were sensitized to the situation.
  • Parents were asked to have children travel in groups, and police urged caution regarding unverified social media claims as coordination with schools and local officials continues.
