Curious Story From Wiesbaden

I was out of the Wiesbaden area for the past week, and there was this curious event that occurred on Wednesday evening.....around 6:30 PM....where some 12-year-old kid (boy) encounters a lady down by the Platz der Deutschen Einheit (the center of Wiesbaden).

Cops are a bit careful to describe the encounter (the lady is mid-40s), and we are left to wonder about nationalities (the kid or the lady).

But there is some verbal argument that starts up, and the lady wallops the kid, knocking him to the ground.  We are left to wonder about the stout nature of the older lady.....she might have been a hefty gal. 

Then a 17-year-old gal enters the scene and joins in on the beating business....along with some older guy.

Yep, 12-year-old kid getting punched and kicked (while on the ground).

Cops get called.  They arrive.  The older guy has escaped, and observers ID the woman and girl involved in the assault on the kid.

Based on cops and their comments.....the kid does sustain some injuries from the assault.  The topic that drove this?  Totally unknown, and the cops are asking for witnesses to step forward.

Maybe the kid robbed the woman and girl.  Maybe he was supposed to do something and told them them off.  There's probably forty different ways of looking at this.

The thing that gets me.....this is some type of act that you just never saw around Wiesbaden over the past forty-odd years.  Platz der Deutschen Einheit is the dividing line between the 'Westend' and the center of town.....with the Wesstend known to be a non-German part of town.  This may be some type of pay-back for upsetting family relations.
