Bonn-Pützchen: Under Investigation: Allegations of Sexual Harassment and Threats - Criminal authorities seek leads for further investigation

In the early hours of September 14, 2025, an unsettling incident occurred in the Marktstraße area of Bonn-Pützchen. Two young women, aged 16, were on their way home from an event when an unknown man approached them in a suggestive manner.

The suspect, described as approximately 45-50 years old, thin, bald, and around 180 cm tall, is said to have entered the taxi the young women were in. According to reports, he touched one of the girls on the leg before the taxi arrived at its destination.

The incident took place around 2:20 AM, and the suspect reportedly wore a black leather jacket, black pants, and dark shoes. Witnesses claim that they were threatened by the fleeing suspect around 2:30 AM.

Passersby intervened when they noticed the incident, causing the unknown man to flee the scene. The suspect has not been found despite initial search efforts.

The two young women later reported the incident at the police station in Bad Godesberg. The Bonn Criminal Police is investigating the incident under suspicion of sexual harassment and threat.

Two witnesses to the incident have also contacted the police. The identity of the suspect has not been disclosed, but the Criminal Investigation Unit 12 is actively investigating the case.

Anyone with information about the incident is asked to contact the police at 0228/15-0 or via email at [email protected]. For further inquiries, please contact the Police BonnPress Office at 0228 - 1510-21 to 23 or visit their website at https://bonn.polizei.nrw.
