00:00There was a threat situation this afternoon at 12.30 on the Hamburger Kiez on the Reeperbahn.
00:06There was a man who came out of an immis, in one hand a pickaxe or a hammer,
00:13and in the other hand a so-called Molotov cocktail.
00:16And with these objects he then approached passers-by and police officers
00:22and threatened them, tried to attack them,
00:25and the police officers then used their firearms.
00:29Do you feel safe at the stadium?
00:31Yeah, of course, I'm with my whole family, so then it's no problem.
00:35There's a lot of police around the stadium, so I feel very safe around the stadium.
00:39Yeah, it's very safe, of course, because of the policemen,
00:42the stewards, everything is perfect.
00:45Yes, absolutely, because we have a lot of police here and around,
00:49and everything, they were really passive in a way,
00:52but they were showing, so absolutely no problem at all.
00:55I think they've done a pretty good job.
00:57You can see a lot of police around, so yeah, I felt quite safe.
01:01I didn't think about it. The game was very good, so I didn't think about it.
