After-school children in Pirna allegedly laid swastikas

Four children aged between 9 and 11 are said to have laid swastikas with bricks and pebbles at a primary school after-school care center in Pirna. Staff at the after-school care center informed the police promptly, a police spokesperson said on Wednesday. The incident had already occurred on July 5. According to the information, the police have opened an investigation into the use of symbols of unconstitutional organizations. However, as the children are under the age of criminal responsibility, the public prosecutor's office will decide how to proceed. The police did not initially provide any details about the background to the incident. It was first reported by the "Sächsische Zeitung" newspaper.
