Multiple sexual assault arrests reported across Germany and Austria

In Munich, a 44‑year‑old Romanian man was arrested at the Hauptbahnhof after a sleeping woman reported repeated indecent touching; video evidence confirmed the assault and a breath‑alcohol test showed 3.3 ‰. In Heidelberg, police detained a 26‑year‑old Afghan suspect accused of sexually assaulting a 17‑year‑old resident in a student dormitory and are probing a possible related attempted rape. Austrian authorities in Gerasdorf arrested a 29‑year‑old man accused of repeatedly threatening, coercing and sexually abusing a 25‑year‑old woman over several years, including an incident involving a knife and hammer; he now faces restraining and weapons bans. In Wittlich’s Ohlingpark, a teenage male was taken into custody after allegedly sexually harassing three women aged 61, 60 and 18 in separate incidents, prompting local calls for better park lighting.

All suspects are in detention pending further investigation.
