> A train conductor has died after being attacked during a routine ticket inspection on a train near the southwestern German city of Kaiserslautern, the Süddeutsche Zeitung broadsheet and other media reported on Wednesday.
> The victim, named as 36-year-old Serkan C.*, was reportedly assaulted by a ticketless passenger on Monday night and beaten up so badly that he died of his injuries 24 hours later.
> The alleged attacker, a 26-year-old man, was arrested at the scene and is being investigated on suspicion of manslaughter.
FYI: the attacker was a homeless Greek, doubt it plays any role, but oddly coincidental given the person he killed was a person of Turkish origin. And its sad how more and more trains are becoming unsafe, as violence against train personnel seems to be normalised..
Awful news.

>”The increasing violence against public service employees and other service providers, such as railway employees, must be met with decisive consequences,” Dobrindt said.
Credit to the minister, dude managed to give a reasonable, accurate statement and did not even mention himself or “innovation” once.
One thing:
> “We are distraught and stunned but, most of all, we’re angry,” said EVG boss Martin Burkert
Union guy’s criticism is quite reasonable, until…
> How many more orgies of violence must we endure before something finally changes?”
I can’t quite describe how that phrasing made me lose all respect for this person, it’s quite the odd effect.
Imagine the headlines if the guy who killed was of Turkish origin and the train personnel was of Greek origin.
