In the early hours of Sunday morning, a disturbing incident occurred on a tram in Dresden, Germany. According to reports from the German press agency, dpa, a 20-year-old American citizen was the victim of a knife attack.

Initially, it was reported that two men from a group were harassing women on the tram. One of the men allegedly attacked the American citizen with a knife, but the police have stated that there was never any danger to his life. The suspect, a 21-year-old, is currently in custody since Tuesday.

The American victim sustained a deep cut to his face and is still receiving treatment in the hospital. An online fundraiser has been initiated to support him during his recovery. The money donation for the injured young American from the knife attack in Dresden was organized by the girlfriend of the victim's brother on the online fundraising platform GoFundMe.

The Dresden Public Prosecutor's Office and the Dresden Police Directorate are withholding further information on the investigation. The status of the investigation is not being disclosed at this time, and no further details about the incident are available. The attack took place while the tram was at a stop, but the exact location remains undisclosed.
