After a mysterious death in Falkenhagener Feld, a suspect has been arrested. The victim has since been identified.
The tenant of an apartment in a high-rise block on the outskirts of the city alerted the police and fire department around 6 p.m. on Sunday. He had discovered the lifeless body of a man in his bathroom.
An emergency doctor tried to revive the unknown, but could only determine the death of the man. “The finding situation indicated a homicide,” said a police spokesman on Monday.
Three days after the crime, it is clear who the victim was. According to the police, it is a 47-year-old Lithuanian who was only temporarily in Berlin.
