German Teen in Trouble for Air Rifle, Switchblade in Oberhausen
A 19-year-old German national is in trouble after being found with an air rifle and ammunition, along with a switchblade, in Oberhausen. The incident occurred on Wednesday evening at Brammenring, prompting several emergency calls. The young man was discovered practicing shooting on targets made of punctured soup cans in a green area. He believed his actions were generally permitted. However, the police seized the air rifle and switchblade at the scene. The local police authority responsible for Oberhausen is now conducting an investigation against him. The suspect is facing a criminal proceeding for violating the Weapons Act. Despite his belief in the general permissibility of his practice sessions, the police have taken a serious stance on the matter. The 19-year-old's air rifle and switchblade have been confiscated, and he is now under investigation for violating weapons laws. The police in Oberhausen are handling the case, and the suspect's belief in the permissibility of his actions may not hold up in court.
