Unknown Substance Sprayed - Seven Injured in Neu-Ulm - Mystery liquid attack leaves seven warehouse workers injured in Neu-Ulm

Seven warehouse workers in Neu-Ulm suffered eye and breathing problems after an unknown liquid was sprayed in their building. Emergency services rushed to the scene on Zeppelinstraße following reports of a possible gas leak on February 6, 2026. Authorities later confirmed no gas release had occurred.

The incident began when two people sprayed a substance in a stairwell. Witnesses reported irritation, prompting multiple calls to emergency services. Firefighters, police, and paramedics arrived quickly, assuming a gas leak.

On-site tests by the fire department ruled out any gas release. The stairwell was then ventilated and declared safe for use. Despite this, the sprayed substance remains unidentified.

Investigators are still analysing samples to determine whether it was pepper spray, CS gas, or another chemical. Police confirmed the account given by a department manager, stating that two individuals were responsible for spraying the liquid.

The affected employees received medical attention for their symptoms. Authorities have not yet released further details about the substance or the individuals involved. The investigation into the incident continues.
