Kölnspiracy criticized Wagner's record: against Bremen, which had been in poor form at the time, there was only one point, and against Hamburg, which had played disastrously up to that point, none. Three points against a team he saw as third-class Gladbach had been achieved despite a poor performance; against Frankfurt, which he described as extremely bad, there were also no points. Kölnspiracy demanded that Wagner be dismissed before it was too late. #Fußball #Wagner #Sport (translated)

Without new construction, there is no relief – the housing market is completely freezing up. Empirica's managing director Reiner Braun warns: "Without new construction, there is no relief – the housing market is completely freezing up." Because potential owners can no longer manage the financing, they are involuntarily moving to the rental market and additionally blocking it. However, due to high construction costs and rising interest rates, very few new apartments are currently being sold, which, according to Braun, also has negative effects on rents: "Because potential owners can no longer manage the financing, they are involuntarily moving to the rental market and additionally blocking it." #Wohnungsmieten #Hamburg #Frankfurt (translated)

Yvonne Kussmann reported that a 21-year-old Afghan man had created a disturbance in his apartment in Hamburg-Harburg last night. The police observed noticeable behavior there but did not see any danger to himself or others and left again. Around 4:50 a.m., the man followed a 58-year-old resident of the same building as she was leaving for work. He struck, kicked, and strangled her until she lost consciousness. After he fled, the woman regained consciousness. Bystanders called the police because they had seen the man, who, according to Kussmann, was allegedly in a state of psychological emergency. The police took the 21-year-old into custody and brought him to a psychiatric clinic. The woman was taken to the hospital. According to Kussmann, the public prosecutor's office was investigating for attempted homicide and had applied for a commitment order. They apparently assume that the man intended to kill the woman while in a state of insanity or diminished capacity. A detention judge was expected to decide on the application the same day. #Hamburg #Gewalt #PsychischeGesundheit (translated)

Yvonne Kussmann wrote that ten years ago in Hamburg, the then 16-year-old Victor was killed. An unknown assailant attacked him from behind with a knife at the shore of the Alster and seriously injured him multiple times; the perpetrator pushed Victor's girlfriend into the Alster. Victor later died in the hospital. The perpetrator has not been found to this day. The case became known as the Alster murder. Two weeks after the crime, the terrorist organization Islamic State (IS) claimed responsibility for the murder. However, the German authorities did not classify it as an Islamist attack, Kussmann wrote. She also recalled the murders of Samuel Paty six years ago and Maria Ladenburger ten years ago. Kussmann again shared a post that Victor's mother published a year ago. At that time, she inquired with the public prosecutor's office and learned that the investigations were ongoing, but there was no new status update. According to the public prosecutor's office, the composite image was not created based on information from Victor's girlfriend, but due to the observation of a third person who had seen a suspicious individual near the crime scene. Due to fewer individual characteristics, the public prosecutor's office considers the image to be "limitedly relevant." #GerechtigkeitFürVictor #AlsterMord #Erinnerung (translated)
