January 12, 2018 By
A 84-year-old woman was injured in the Karl-Hermann-Flach-Straße on Wednesday, 10th January, 2018 at around 5pm when she was bitten by a dog that was not on a lead. Not only did she suffer a number of bites, but also injured her pelvis resulting in her being taken to hospital where she was kept in for treatment.
Her dog, a Havenese, was also attacked and underwent an emergency operation at an animal clinic.
Police have since found out that that the dog that attacked them was a Romanian sheepdog, that belonged to a 72-year-old man from Frankfurt. The dog had been left on a fenced-property on the end of Oberursel, where he had left it at around 4pm. It is not yet clear how the dog got out, but apparently it was shot by police shortly after they arrived at the scene. The owner is now being investigated for assault through negligence and police are asking for witnesses who saw the dog before the attack took place to call them on 06171 62400.

Changes to the U-Bahn route (U3) next week
January 6, 2018 By
Due to permanent way work at Südbahnhof the U3 will be terminating in Frankfurt at Heddernheim next week.
Between 2am on Monday, 8th January and 3m on Monday, 15th January, 2018, there will be no trains travelling on the “A-Line” between Willy-Brandt-Platz and Südbahnhof.
The U3 will terminate at Heddernheim, from where U1 and U2 trains will continue to Willy-Brandt-Platz. The U8 will not be running, but there will be an increased service on the U9 line. To avoid changing platforms at Heddernheim, passengers travelling to Frankfurt with the U3 should alight at “Zeilweg” and then take the U1.
The S-Bahn line S5 also connects Oberursel with the Hauptwache and is not affected by the changes.
