Munich Police End Large Street Celebrations After Bosnia and Herzegovina World Cup Win

A coordinated operation used traffic controls, a support unit and a drone to reduce risks and record complaints.

Overview

  • Hundreds of people and about 200 vehicles flooded Leopold‑ and Ludwigstraße in Schwabing, with police estimating roughly 1,200 people in the area at the peak.
  • More than 100 officers were deployed mainly for traffic measures to keep roads passable and to guide crowds toward the Siegestor traffic area.
  • Two people were reported for igniting pyrotechnics on Ludwigstraße and pyrotechnic devices were later set off again without identified perpetrators.
  • A motorcyclist who performed repeated burn‑outs was stopped and reported by the Münchner Unterstützungskommando.
  • Authorities logged numerous resident noise complaints but reported no significant injuries or major security incidents and ended the operation after most participants dispersed.
