Friedberg (dpa / lby) – A youth threatened and injured two others in a parking lot in Friedberg (Aichbach-Friedberg district) with a machete, one of the two seriously. The 14-year-old boy first hit a 15-year-old on Thursday and threatened him until he gave up his cell phone, police said on Tuesday. He then asked for the branded fanny pack of a 16-year-old who was also present. When he resisted, he was cut several times with a machete in the scramble, especially on his hands.

The 14-year-old escaped and the two injured were taken to the hospital. The 16-year-old was still in the hospital on Tuesday due to massive cuts. On Friday, the 14-year-old was caught by the police and shortly afterwards was handed over to a juvenile detention center.
