You mean: From the Interior Minister of North Rhine-Westphalia, Ralf Jäger (SPD).
I wish you wouldn't throw that word "Left" around so carelessly.

To be honest, it looks rather tame for New Years Eve, at least by San Francisco standards.
It doesn't look like anything regular cops wouldn't be able to handle. I sure don't see 1000 swarthy refugees pulling a Lara Logan swarm on anyone.
But of course, the incidents supposedly happened in a nearby alley.
Meanwhile, the sensational aspects of this episode in the news has obscured my ability to research incidents of rape or sexual assault occurring on NYE in other cities of the world. I mean, is a report of 100 sexual assaults unusual on NYE in New York or Chicago? Can't tell.

Katja L. (28) erzählt
Katja L. (28) war mit zwei Freundinnen und einem Mann unterwegs. Es war 0.45 Uhr, als sich die Gruppe im Bahnhof traf. Das Ziel: der benachbarte Alte Wartesaal.
„Als wir aus der Bahnhofshalle kamen, waren wir sehr verwundert über die Gruppe, die uns da empfing“, erzählt die Kölnerin. Es handelte sich ausschließlich um junge ausländische Männer. Katja hakte sich bei einer Freundin ein, die andere junge Frau bei ihrem Freund.
„Wir liefen dann durch diese Männergruppe. Es tat sich eine Gasse auf, durch die wir liefen. Plötzlich spürte ich eine Hand an meinem Po, dann an meinen Brüsten, schließlich wurde ich überall begrapscht. Es war der Horror. Obwohl wir schrien und um uns schlugen, hörten die Typen nicht auf. Ich war verzweifelt und glaube, dass ich rund 100 Mal auf den knapp 200 Metern angefasst wurde.“
Es tat sich eine Gasse auf, durch die wir liefen.

That's how punk bands work here in America, I can grok that. My bad.

Still the events in Cologne were worrying.
