On August 25, 2025, a targeted control was conducted at Lübeck Central Station by the 2nd Police Station, Federal Police, and the Municipal Ordinance Service. The control, which took place between 3:00 PM and 6:00 PM, was aimed at enforcing the ban on weapons and knives in public transport at the station.

During the control, one person who was wanted for arrest was taken into custody. Several individuals were charged with administrative offenses, four of which were under the Weapons Act as several persons were found carrying knives. Criminal proceedings were initiated against some of those charged.

The control was generally well received by the public, with the control being conducted by officers from the 2nd Police Station, Federal Police, and the Municipal Ordinance Service of the city of Lübeck.
