Bloody Crime
Bildunterschrift:
Several Hamburg residents took part in a funeral procession on Sunday, May 18, to lay flowers at a parking lot where a 16-year-old German girl of Afghan descent was knifed to death early Friday morning. Neighbours and passersby in Hamburg's Sankt Georg district heard the girl screaming near the Berliner Tor metro stop and called police at 11:21 pm on Thursday. The girl died about an hour later despite the efforts of emergency medical personnel to revive her. Police say the girl was stabbed 20 times by her 23-year-old brother who was arrested on Saturday.
