During the 2015/2016 New Year's Evecelebrations, there were allegedly mass sexual assaults, 22 alleged rapes in Cologne,[7], two alleged rapes in Hamburg,[19]and numerous thefts in Germany, mainly in the Cologne city center. There were similar incidents at the public celebrations in Hamburg, Dortmund, Düsseldorf, Stuttgart,[27]and Bielefeld.[28] For all of Germany, police estimated in a document leaked in 2016 that 1,200 women were sexually assaulted and that at least 2,000 men were involved, often acting in groups. Many of the incidents involved women being surrounded and assaulted by groups of men on the street.[29][30] Cologne police chief Wolfgang Albers stated that the perpetrators in his city were reportedly men of "Arab or North African appearance" and said that Germany had never experienced such mass sexual assaults before.https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2015–16_New_Year's_Eve_sexual_assaults_in_Germany
