Where NOT to let of fireworks this New Year’s Eve
December 30, 2011 By Leave a Comment
The town of Oberursel would like to remind residents that fireworks may not be let of in the town in the following areas:
– near timber-framed houses, or close enough that the firework could land on one
– near houses with thatched-roofs, or close enough that the firework could land on such a roof
– near churches, hospitals, childrens’ homes and homes for the elderly
This is not just a request but governed by laws on the use of explosives and environmental noise control. Anyone setting of a firework that causes a timber-framed house to catch fire faces not only a fine and claims for damages, but also the possibility of a prison sentence.

Stabbing in Oberursel’s Town Hall
November 17, 2011 By Leave a Comment
This morning a visitor to Oberursel’s Town Hall (Rathaus) attacked one of the workers there with a knife and was overpowered by a member of the Ordnungsamt.
The town hall remained closed for the rest of the morning. The attacker was taken into police custody.
The town employee was treated at the scene and then transferred to hospital. Despite being stabbed in the back, they are apparently out of danger and expected to be discharged possibly as soon as tomorrow.
