The three attackers were “said to have tied him up and choked him while expressing anti-Semitic abuse,” according to the police statement.

“When a sports teacher noticed the attack, he immediately intervened and separated the three suspected attackers from the 14-year-old, who suffered from reddening of the throat.”

According to the report, the attack took place in the district of Tempelhof- Schöneberg. An investigation has been launched.
