Furthermore, witnesses stated that that officers had kicked the man in the head as he was on the ground, with a medical examination confirming injuries consisting with "head trauma by kicking".

He was resucitated by the doctor and brought to the University Hospital Mannheim, where he died, never regaining consciousness. Video footage filmed by bystanders showed the incident, in which one officer could be seen seemingly striking the man in the head, leading to allegations of police brutality and discrimination, as the victim was a Croat immigrant.^[419]

SEK arrived and shot the man in the head when the offender stabbed a police dog, heavily injuring the animal. The man later succumbed to his wounds. He was identified as a homeless person, an ethnic Somali originally from Jijiga, Ethiopia, with an intensive criminal record of violence and drugs.

2022-08-07	Dramé, Mouhamed Lamine [de]	16	Dortmund	Nordrhein-Westfalen	A social worker at a youth home for unaccompanied minors called police about a Senegalese teenager, who had voiced suicidal intentions while pointing a knife at his stomach. He ended up being shot five times in the stomach, jaw and arm during a confrontation with five police officers. The exact circumstances were initially unclear and it was claimed by the NRW's ministry of home affairs that the boy had attacked the officers. In November, however, it came to light that the officers had knowingly left their bodycams off and during their trials for negligent homicide and, they admitted to lying about the chain of events. The teenager had never pointed the weapon away from himself, having remained in a squatting position with his head in his knees, and only became roused when he was pepper sprayed without warning, at which point three officers simultaneously opened fire, two with tasers and another with his sidearm.^[428]^[429]^[430]

The man then charged at arriving police officers who shot and killed him. Although islam extremism was considered a motive due to the attacker yelling "Allahu Akbar", police did not label the stabbing a terrorist incident, but rather attributed it to the fact that he was about to face deportation due to convictions for a sex crime and possession of drugs, also noting that he had apparently been abusing anti-depressants.^[434]^[435]
2022-09-14	Medard Mutombo, Kupa Ilunga	64	Berlin	Berlin	A Congolese man with schizophrenia was supposed to be transported from a care center in Spandau to a psychiatric hospital.

The man's caretaker said that the officers had repeatedly punched his patient in the head while they kept him fixated on the ground, with one officer kneeing on his neck, which police justified because the elderly man had attempted to hit, kick and bite them. The man fell into a coma and died three weeks later on 6 October.^[436]^[437]^[438]
2022-10-24	R., Timo	31	Zülpich	Nordrhein-Westfalen	A man attempted to break down the door to his parents' house and damaged the car outside. He then attacked police with a knife and was fatally shot once.^[439]
