Police in Achern detained a suspected attacker after an alleged assault on a 16-year-old on a path between the station and the industrial area. The incident was reported on Wednesday evening, shortly before 18:00. The victim said a 24-year-old man allegedly attacked her on the way to the station. She reportedly defended herself and called for help, and the man allegedly stopped and fled. As a couple nearby tried to help, the suspect allegedly pushed the man, who fell off his bicycle. The attacker then ran from the scene. Police stopped searching and later found the fleeing suspect about an hour after the report in the station area. Officers detained him, and the criminal police took over the investigation. Investigators are also checking whether the suspect was involved in a separate incident around 16:00 at the station, where two other victims were allegedly attacked. Police are asking for witnesses, including two male passers-by who were reportedly near the covered bicycle stands around 18:00, and two unknown individuals from the earlier incident, to contact the criminal duty service at 0781 21-2820.
