Pepper spray nightmare in Miltenberg: 18-year-old disrupts party!

A nighttime incident in Stadtprozelten caused a stir in the Miltenberg district. On the night of Sunday, October 5, 2025, an 18-year-old suddenly sprayed pepper spray into the crowd during an event in the town hall. At this point there were around 100 guests present, which quickly escalated the situation.

The spray attack led to a large-scale operation by police and emergency services. The Aschaffenburg police were on site with several patrols, supported by forces from Hesse. Three young guests aged 15 to 20 suffered minor respiratory irritation from the pepper spray and had to be treated. Thanks to the rapid action of the emergency services, worse things and a panic reaction among the crowd were prevented. The 18-year-old, who is of German and Turkish origin, was temporarily arrested and released after a police hearing. He is now facing criminal proceedings for grievous bodily harm.

Alarming situation in the town hall

The event where the incident took place was originally a peaceful celebration. But the mood quickly changed when the guests were suddenly hit by pepper spray. The quick intervention of the police and emergency services was of great importance for those present. “We immediately sent several patrols to the event,” said a police spokesman, in order to quickly get the situation under control. Fortunately, the health effects for those affected remained limited.

The exact background to the attack is still unclear. It is currently being investigated whether this was a breach of security regulations or a personal dispute. “The investigation is ongoing and we are taking the incident very seriously,” police said. It remains to be seen whether the 18-year-old had a serious motivation behind his actions or whether it was a thoughtless act.

How things continue will remain exciting. The coming days will show whether there are further developments in this case. A warning signal for organizers and visitors that attention and quick action are required when it comes to safety at public celebrations. Protecting festivities must be a top priority.
