Murder in Obermenzing: Police are looking for witnesses for mysterious case!

On Monday, July 7, 2025, the police in Munich discovered the lifeless body of 62-year-old Ulrich Zilker in his house in Keyserlingstrasse, Obermenzing. It is clear that Zilker died several days earlier. A legally arranged autopsy on Thursday, July 10th, confirmed what many had already feared: The result clearly showed that Zilker was victims of a killing crime, as https://www.radiogong.de/polizei-muenchen-tungen-Brikt-obermen call) reported.

The circumstances of his death are worrying. The deputy head of Commissioner 11, Mathias Heidtmann, excluded an accident. Zilker therefore died of "massive violence". Blood traces were found at the scene, but neither firing wounds nor visible traces of burglary could be found, informed [tz.

a life in isolation

Ulrich Zilker lived alone and was considered withdrawn, with hardly any social contacts. Neighbors describe him as a mysterious person whom they hardly knew. He was often traveling with a striking pink trolley and had neither a car nor a cell phone. It is particularly depressing that Zilker has been seen alive for the last time since June 15 when he was on the phone with a friend. A meeting planned for the end of June did not take place, and when this acquaintance could not reach him, she reported to him on July 7th, reports [Radio Gong] (https://www.radiogong.de/polizei-muenchen-tungen-tungen- Obermenzing-witenzruf).

The police have now taken over the investigation that was initially managed by the Commissioner 12. Commissioner 11 for capital crimes has now extended further processing. In order to better understand the circumstances of the crime, the second home of Zilker on Keferloherstraße in Milbertshofen is also examined.
