From this German news site:
The Hamburg police are looking for two men who reportedly pushed an elderly woman down the stairs at the subway station at Hamburg-Ohlsdorf. The incident happened Monday morning during rush hour when the train station is extremely busy. Afterwards the young men took the senior woman’s purse without intervention by anyone.
Police spokesperson: “A devious assault”
The woman had just exited the subway and was starting to walk down the stairs when she suddenly was pushed from behind. She lost her balance and fell. She suffered light injuries. A second attacker grabbed her purse when she fell. “This was a most devious attack”, police spokesman Ulf Wundrack said. If not for the 75 year old to hang on to the stair railing, she might have been injured a lot worse.
Nobody placed an emergency call
The two attackers were about 17 to 18 years old. The search for the offenders includes pictures taken from the subway CCTV. The police are stunned that not a single passerby placed an emergency call especially since the train station was packed with people.
