"The small town of Beelitz in Brandenburg has been shaken: 26-year-old young CDU politician Christoph Rosenschon was the victim of a brutal crime. According to the police, he was killed on January 14 with stab wounds to the neck. The suspect is 24-year-old Mahmadou-Alpha B., a migrant from Guinea who was living in Germany as a tolerated asylum seeker.
The crime took place in an apartment in Doktor-Herrmann-Straße after neighbors reported a fire. The fire department and police discovered Rosenschon's lifeless body with serious injuries to his neck. The police already suspected murder at this point, but ruled out a political motive.
Second attack leads to arrest
At the weekend, a 57-year-old Ukrainian woman was attacked by the suspected perpetrator in the same street. She suffered stab wounds to her neck, but was able to defend herself before the attacker jumped out of the window and was eventually arrested.
The police believe there is a direct connection between the two attacks. Both victims were attacked in the same place using similar methods. The suspect was taken to a psychiatric facility and the investigation into murder and attempted murder is ongoing."
