Wiesbaden shocked: man exposes himself in front of 69-year-old walker!

A disturbing incident occurred in Wiesbaden on Saturday morning, sending the city into turmoil. A 69-year-old woman who was walking her dog was harassed by an unknown man on Schlichterstrasse around 3:05 a.m. He exposed himself and began sexual acts in front of her. To defend herself, the woman used animal repellent spray, whereupon the perpetrator fled towards Wiesbaden city center. The police are now looking for information about the incident and are asking for the public's support.

This incident is part of a worrying development: the number of sexual crimes in Germany has risen steadily in recent years. The highest level was reached in 2024 with around 128,000 recorded cases.
