Germany: Four Syrian Brothers Arrested over Stabbing of 67-Year-Old Music Teacher

Four Syrian brothers have been arrested after a 67-year-old teacher was nearly killed in a knife attack last month in a suburb of Hamburg, Germany.

The 67-year-old music teacher from Tornesch barely escaped with his life after being stabbed on July 19th in the parking lot outside of an adult education centre in Wedel outside of Hamburg.

The teacher reportedly suffered wounds to his neck and upper body before he escaped his attackers by fleeing inside the school.

Shortly after the attack, police arrested two men in connection with the stabbing, yet they were released due to a lack of evidence.

However, this week, four men, reportedly all brothers from Syria, aged 17, 19, 21, and 21, were arrested by the local homicide squad on suspicion of attempted murder and dangerous bodily harm,” Bild reports.
