Shock in Prenzlau: 29-year-old young people attack brutally!

Prenzlau, Deutschland - In the past few days, police work in Prenzlau has hit high waves. An incident that took place on June 21, 2025 in the Neustädter Damm brought the topic of youth crime and increasing violence among young people.

growing concerns about youth crime

drug abuse and violence

drug use remains a serious problem. Even if ordinars cannabis is widespread among young people, experts show that synthetic substances such as crystal meth and ecstasy are particularly increasing.
