feeling of security and violent crime

Violent crimes are a topic that people not only employ here in Brandenburg. According to an analysis of Statista , they make up less than 4% of all offenses in Germany. But they have an enormous impact on people's feeling of security. Around 217,000 violent crimes have been registered in 2024, the highest number since 2007. The increase has been particularly alarming since 2021, which is partly attributed to economic uncertainties and social stress.

The police have informed the acts of violence in three quarters of the cases, with about a third of the suspects under the age of 21. This shows that young people are increasingly involved in violent clashes, a fact that society concerns. It is also worrying that violence against emergency services in 2023 achieved a maximum, which further tightens the situation.

The incidents in Prenzlau once again illustrate how important it is to educate the topic of violent crime and to take appropriate prevention measures. This is the only way to become more secure and the trust of the citizens are restored to the law enforcement officers.
