After the murder, he turned himself in to the police and was arrested. The relationship between the suspect and the 47-year-old and the 51-year-old is still unclear. According to the police, he was not part of the family. The couple’s four minor children were in the house during the crime. The motive for the crime is still unclear.
The 18-year-old is to be brought before an investigating judge on Monday. According to the police, the judge is checking whether the suspect should come into custody.
Residents heard calls for help from the neighboring house shortly after midnight on Sunday and dialed the emergency number, as the police and public prosecutor announced on Sunday. Rescue workers found the lifeless couple in the basement. Both had stab wounds. A large contingent was looking for the suspect, who presented himself to the police in Bayreuth at around 4 a.m. The officers arrested him.
The motive and background of the fact are unclear. A police spokesman could not say how much the children heard of what was going on in the house. The investigators were able to question them. Now the youth welfare office takes care of the four children.
