Violent death in Gundelfingen: 47-year-old arrested as a suspect

in Gundelfingen, a small community near Freiburg, the situation is tense after the brutal death of a 66-year-old man. On June 10, 2025, the man was found dead in his apartment after his relatives alerted the police because they were unable to contact him. The initial investigations by the police indicate a homicide, since the 66-year-old obviously violently kept death through external influence, as forensic medicine confirmed. However, details about the injuries have not been published, which makes the situation even more mysterious. [Swabian] reports on a special commission that has been set up to gain further findings and to promote the trace evaluation.

The urgent 47-year-old German, according to current information, is said to have killed the victim in his own apartment. The two obviously had a well -known relationship. This raises questions about the motif that has so far remained unknown. The Freiburg public prosecutor, who acts in close cooperation with the criminal police, is now also concerned. The suspect was arrested in a neighboring community on June 12, 2025 and has been in custody since then. On June 13, he was brought before the judge and an arrest warrant for manslaughter was issued. [RegioTrends] reports that the man has not yet appeared because of violent crimes.
