In the early morning of June 8, 2010, Sabine is hit by a car belonging to her divorced husband outside her front door. She falls to the ground with her bicycle. He shoots several times with a gun, seriously injuring her. The 12-year-old son witnesses the crime.
Then the perpetrator flees, but turns himself in to the police shortly after. As a motive he gives jealousy and wounded honor. The man had become violent before. A few months earlier the court had forbidden him to approach the parental home. His occupation was given as a cab driver.
Sabine undergoes emergency surgery in the hospital after the crime and survives. In November 2010, the trial for the attempted murder begins in the Münster District Court. In December, the perpetrator is sentenced to 11 years in prison. The real name of the victim is not known.
