Munich/Elmau: protest against the G7 summit is formed
Investigators examined the completely burned-out squad car in the morning. The officials estimated the damage in the six-digit range. Nobody got hurt. In the run-up to the meeting, resistance is apparently also forming in Elmau: power boxes there have recently been dangerously manipulated, and several protests have been announced for the next few days.
