Nearly a month after a student stabbed a teacher to death in Ibbenbüren, investigations have brought more details to light. According to information obtained by investigators from the “Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger” (Friday edition), the 17-year-old suspect tossed a coin to decide whether to kill his 55-year-old class teacher.

The German-Turkish youth informed the police, who led him away from the scene of the crime, about this. The reason for the action was probably the student’s one-day suspension from school. The Münster homicide squad dealing with the case gave the case the name “Coin”. The public prosecutor did not want to comment or deny the case.
