Arrest of Suspects for Destroying Properties with Illegal Symbols

In the heart of Dortmund, a series of vandalism incidents have recently occurred, involving two masked individuals who allegedly placed seditious symbols at the entrance of a catering establishment on Brückstraße and at the "Green Youth Dortmund" office on Münsterstraße.

According to reports, the arrested suspect, a 20-year-old woman from Hamm, was identified by the police as a known right-wing extremist in Dortmund. She was apprehended by officers from the Focus operational concept in the Königswall area, carrying a spray can of black paint.

Upon seeing the officers, both suspects fled the scene. The female suspect was later arrested in the area of Place d'Amiens.

The vandalism in both cases was carried out in black paint, causing damage to the properties. The police have been investigating these incidents, with Soko Rechts taking over the investigations for criminal damage under § 303 StGB and for the use of symbols of unconstitutional organizations under § 86a StGB.

Vigilant citizens and the catering establishment owner notified the police about the incident on Brückstraße, while it was the staff of the "Green Youth Dortmund" office who reported the vandalism at their office.

It may be necessary to consult local German news sources, law enforcement press releases, or official statements from Dortmund authorities for more information on this topic.

The general-news outlets in Dortmund are reporting that the suspect, identified as a known right-wing extremist, is under investigation for acts of vandalism, specifically in the categories of criminal damage under § 303 StGB and the use of symbols of unconstitutional organizations under § 86a StGB.
