A violent altercation at Lucerne train station has sparked widespread attention after a video surfaced on social media showing an SBB employee assaulting another man.
The incident, which occurred early Sunday morning, led to police intervention and two formal complaints being filed.
The video, initially shared by the Instagram account 'Szene_esch.
luzern,' has since been removed.
In response, the Swiss Federal Railways (SBB) has suspended the employee involved, emphasizing their zero-tolerance policy towards violence.
However, SBB spokesperson Reto Schärli highlighted the presumption of innocence, noting that an internal investigation is underway, and further details cannot be disclosed at this time.
