Brutal incident on L425: Attempted murder and danger to the family!
On Wednesday morning, February 6, 2025, an incredible incident happened on the L425 country road between Westhofen and Worms-Benheim, which led to an attempted homicide. A 45-year-old man from Westhofen was presented to the Mainz District Court in the afternoon at the request of the public prosecutor. The investigative judge ordered pre -trial detention for attempted murder with dangerous bodily harm. Since then, the accused has been in a correctional facility.
The events started when the 45-year-old presumably deliberately brought about a collision with an oncoming VW Tiguan. In this collision, a 40-year-old woman and her 68-year-old father, who was actually the driver of the Tiguan, suffered serious injuries. Both the daughter and her father were brought into surrounding hospitals with life -threatening injuries.
first the collision, then the knife attack
After the serious accident, another cruel act followed: the accused added significant stabbing injuries to his wife sitting in the Tiguan. The condition of both victims, the wife and their father, is currently stable, but they are still in inpatient treatment.
After the incident, the accused fled from the scene of the accident on foot, but was only stopped by witnesses about 100 meters later and was held until the police arrived. He also suffered injuries through the collision and spent one night to monitor in the hospital. Investigations by the police are currently indicating that marital conflicts have to be considered as a possible background of the dramatic events. However, the investigation is still ongoing, and a comprehensive assessment of the case is not yet possible.
Current developments
The 45-year-old accused was brought to court and the decision on custody shows that he is seriously suspected of the crime. The severity of the allegations and the health conditions of the victims indicate the urgency of the further investigation. While the public prosecutor is already active, the public is eagerly awaiting the next steps in the procedure.
Overall, this incident not only shapes the families concerned, but also raises questions about the social issues of conflicts in relationships. The authorities are excited to see which further information will reveal the ongoing investigations. Meanwhile, the community in Westhofen and the surrounding area remains shocked by the events.
