Elderly woman attacked and robbed while praying in church
On August 1, a 40-year-old man violently pushed an elderly woman who was praying in St. Peter and Paul Catholic Church to the ground, kicked her and took her bag. As a result of the attack, the woman suffered a laceration to her head and was taken to hospital where she was stitched up.
The perpetrator was first ordered out by the sacristan of the church for inappropriate behavior. He refused to leave the church and instead insulted and loudly cursed the sacristan. He then approached the 90-year-old woman, insulted her and then demanded money from her. When she tried to run away, he turned on her and robbed her.
The judge in Heilbronn issued an arrest warrant for robbery and grievous bodily harm.
