Stalker Detained Ahead of Taylor Swift's Concerts in Germany



A 34-year-old American man was detained ahead of Taylor Swift's first concert in Gelsenkirchen, Germany, after making threats against the singer on social media. Detained during entry checks at the Veltins-Arena, the suspect posed a potential risk, leading to his arrest based on tips from event organizers. 


Held in custody until Swift's concerts conclude, the man did not pose a danger to Swift or the audience, ensuring the Wednesday concert for 60,000 fans proceeded peacefully. Gelsenkirchen, temporarily renamed "Swiftkirchen" in her honor, hosts Swift's Eras Tour concerts until Friday, with upcoming shows in Hamburg and Munich.
