At least two men were injured by stab wounds in a dispute between several people in Lüneburg. One of them was seriously injured, said a police spokesman in Lüneburg. According to initial findings, not only a knife was used in the dispute in the Kaltenmoor district on Sunday afternoon, it was probably also shot into the air with a blank pistol.

A vehicle then drove away in the direction of Hamburg. There, police officers were able to stop the car a little later at a red light in Hamburg-Bergedorf and check the four men inside. “Two of them had stab wounds in their backs,” said a police spokesman in Hamburg. The two were taken to hospitals. At first, the spokesman could not say anything about the background of the crime.
