Bitterfeld Train Station: - A 28-year-old man without a ticket assaults a 18-year-old passenger.

The emergency control center of the railway requested help from officials around 12:25 AM. They needed help identifying some individuals. A police team arrived at the station on track three where a train attendant and three male passengers who had been hiding in the bathroom of the train to avoid getting their tickets checked were found.

The identities of two of these men, a 28-year-old Moroccan and a 30-year-old Algerian, were confirmed on the spot. They were allowed to continue their journey after paying extra for their tickets and filling out a report on fraud.

However, the third man, the one accused of hurting an 18-year-old who defended the train conductor during the check-in, needed to go to Bitterfeld police station for further identification.

Resorting to a fingerprinting system, it became clear that the Algerian man's identity was 100% certain. Aside from the fraud report, a report for assault was added to his records as well.
