An American woman, who accidentally stabbed an Eritrean to death, faces up to ten years in prison.
The young woman, 20, was standing at a German train station on an escalator, when a 65-year-old man grabbed her backside on June 29. The incident occurred at Kaiserslautern train station, in the southwestern state of Rhineland-Palatinate.
After realising what had happened, the woman turned around and drew a folding knife, gesturing towards the 64-year-old man, with stabbing movements. The woman explained to investigators that she ‘wanted to keep the mat at a distance’ and that when he, eventually, took a step back, so did she.
The man then grabbed at the arm that the woman was holding the knife in, and as the woman struggled to free herself she accidentally stabbed the man in the heart ‘during the same movement’. Prosecutors reveal
