400 people fought in a group! Schalke fans pull a cease train and fight in the woods with Dortmund and Cologne fans

According to German media WDR, last Saturday night, Schalke 04 fans pulled the train's emergency braking many times on the way back from the away game, got off at the nearby forest and fought with Dortmund and Cologne fans, which also forced the police to dispatch a large number of police forces and use helicopters to calm the situation.

reported that police found about 300 Schalke fans on a wooded trail, and found about 90 Dortmund fans and several Cologne fans near a sports field, and seized a large number of items used for brawls, including boxing gloves, braces and ski masks. The individuals will be subject to multiple criminal charges such as dangerous interference with rail traffic, abuse of emergency call facilities and personal injury, and the investigation is still underway.

In Gelsenkirchen, police are also investigating a new case: around 2:30 a.m., about 30 unidentified persons broke into a private party in a clubhouse in Gelsenkirchen-Rothausen, destroying furniture and attacking guests. According to witnesses, the other party also shouted "The Essen people are so hateful."

Preliminary surveys showed that some of the guests at the party were fans of Red and White Essen. Witnesses told police that some of the attackers had obvious tattoos on their bodies, which may be Schalke fans. At present, the police are investigating whether the incident is related to the incident in Dortmund.

Gelsenkirchen Police Chief Tim Frommeer strongly condemned the attacks: "Whether in Dortmund or Gelsenkirchen, those who believe violence is part of football are not real fans, but criminals." Gelsenkirchen police called on more witnesses to provide clues.
