It’s really scary how easily some people become violent …

In his rage, the man threw newspaper stands across the room

An example from the main railway station in Bielefeld: Security forces approached a Guinean (30) who had been sitting on the floor of the building for some time. They wanted to know what he was up to and where he was going. Quite harmless, actually!
But suddenly the man from Africa went berserk. He rammed his fist into the face of a security guard. Then he stormed into a bookshop in the station concourse, grabbed a display rack and smashed the inventory in the shop.
Federal police officers overpowered the rioter. In agreement with the public prosecutor, he was released after questioning. Criminal proceedings are pending against him for damage to property (1500 euros) and bodily harm.
