Police in Dresden call off bike lessons for kids

In an unexpected turn of events, the Dresden Police has cancelled bicycle lessons for children in 20 primary and secondary schools across the city. The decision, confirmed by police spokesman Thomas Geithner, has left many parents and educators questioning the reasons behind this move.

The cancellation affects a significant number of schools, but no details have been provided about the specific preventive measures being taken or the nature of the criminal activities targeted by these measures. What we do know is that the Dresden Police is continuing its efforts against violent youth gangs, with a special commission now being supported by the force.

The role of the traffic educators in this special commission is to assist in preventive measures at high schools and grammar schools. It's important to note that these educators are not involved in the combat against violent youth gangs, and will not be deployed for criminal pursuits within the SOKO. Instead, they will be focusing on preventive measures against youth gangs.

However, no details about the size or composition of the special commission, or the four traffic instructors supporting it, have been made available. Additionally, no information has been provided about the timing or duration of the cancellation of the bicycle lessons, or the alternative arrangements for the remaining 15 schools.

Despite the lack of specific details, it's clear that the Dresden Police is taking decisive action in response to the ongoing issue of violent youth gangs. It's worth noting that no current increase in violent robberies among peers has been reported, suggesting that these measures are preventative in nature.

While the cancellation of bicycle lessons may cause inconvenience for some, it's important to remember that the safety and wellbeing of the city's children is the top priority for the Dresden Police. As more information becomes available, we will keep you updated on this developing story.
