Freiburg (dpa / lsw) – Three unknown girls are said to have been involved in an arson attack in a Freiburg nursing home. As announced by the police on Thursday, the girls allegedly placed a burning object between a half-closed shutter and the window glass of an apartment on the ground floor of the residential complex on Tuesday afternoon. The tenant of the apartment discovered the fire and managed to put it out on his own.
The alleged perpetrators, aged between 13 and 16, fled through a nearby playground when they saw the resident. It was initially unclear whether other unknown people were involved in the arson.
