Nine-Year-Old Girl Jumps from Window During Berlin Police Raid
A nine-year-old girl jumped from a first-floor window during a police operation in Berlin on January 14, 2026. Emergency responders detained her 38-year-old mother, who was reportedly assaulted by officers as they forced entry into the apartment. The incident occurred while police searched the home in connection with Hertha BSC football fans.
The girl escaped through the window after a confrontation inside the flat. A 62-year-old neighbour caught her, preventing more serious harm. She suffered only minor injuries and is now staying with her father.
Her mother, who has a history of mental illness, was taken into custody during the raid. She is currently receiving medical treatment in hospital. Authorities have not released details about the events inside the apartment or the allegations against the officers involved.
The operation was part of a wider investigation linked to Hertha BSC supporters. No official statement has been made regarding the circumstances that led to the escalation or the mother's condition at the time.
The child remains with her father while her mother undergoes hospital care. Investigations into the police operation and the events inside the apartment are ongoing. No further information has been provided by authorities at this stage.
