The damage to the property is estimated at around 25.000 Euro. The vandals bragged about their act in the Jugendwerk in the afternoon. One of the supervisors overheard their conversation and drove to the scene of the crime to witness the destruction firsthand and informed the police immediately. When questioned by the police, the trio admitted to the crime.
