Hooded men storm through the city center of Graz
Wild chase scenes around Kaiser-Josef-Platz: masked people storm through the popular market square in the center of Graz, smoke can be seen, presumably from Bengals and fireworks. Several police vehicles, at least ten, are already at the scene. Passers-by walk past the opera house, seconds later people are being chased by the police. What was going on?
Kronen Zeitung als bevorzugte Google-Quelle hinzufügen The Graz soccer derby between GAK and Sturm has been a talking point in the Styrian capital for days. After incidents between the two fan camps in recent duels, there is always concern that something could happen again. And that may well have been the case on Sunday night.
As the police confirmed to the "Krone", a group of 20 to 30 people from the GAK fan camp are said to have met in the city center in relevant bars. "Shortly before midnight, they disguised themselves and set off in search of Sturm fans," confirmed police spokesman Markus Lamb.
However, the police already had the group on their radar. The people were intercepted at Kaiser-Josef-Platz in order to establish their identities and to perlustrate them, whereupon chaos broke out and officers were pelted with bottles. The rioters fled. The first "derby" result: five charges (two of which were criminal and three administrative) and 13 organ mandates.
