Alleged Father Threatens Employees at Kita in Düsseldorf

On July 31, 2025, a man stormed into a daycare center in Düsseldorf, heavily threatening several staff members with his words. The police confirmed the incident and took a report for a threat, but the specific nature of the threats made by the man remains undisclosed.

According to reports, the alleged threat occurred during an argument among the children, and the father of one of the children involved may have been the perpetrator. The name of the father has not been disclosed in the available reports.

The mother of the affected child has since apologized for the incident, and other parents and staff at the daycare centre have denied any injury to the son of the man in question. However, the man himself claimed that his son was injured, but this has not been confirmed.

In response to the incident, the city, as the operator, has implemented additional security measures. As of now, during drop-off and pick-up times, the daycare center doors remain locked and are only opened by staff. These measures will be in effect until at least 2027, according to Studios NRW.

A city spokesperson confirmed these measures to the "Rheinische Post". The police are investigating the incident further, but no further details have been released. The witnesses' testimonies were not disclosed to the public.

The Düsseldorf police have not commented on whether the man has been arrested or charged. The man has been banned from the daycare center, but it remains unclear whether he will face any legal consequences.

This incident serves as a reminder of the importance of maintaining a safe and secure environment for children. The city and the police are working to ensure the safety of all children and staff at the daycare center, and we will continue to update you as more information becomes available.
