Title: Masked Attackers Strike During Diversity Festival in Bad Freienwalde

Hey there! A shocking incident unfolded in Bad Freienwalde, Märkisch-Oderland, recently, where a group of suspected far-right extremists launched a vicious attack on participants at a diversity festival. Here's the lowdown on this cowardly act, the investigation, and the community's response.

The Dark Hoodlums Strike

Just before noon on the fateful day, around ten to fifteen men, concealed in masks and dark attire, descended upon a gathering of the queer community on Karl-Marx-Straße. They wreaked havoc, administering beatings with wooden clubs and quartz-encased fists to unsuspecting visitors.

Two men, aged 54 and 47, sustained head injuries from the merciless onslaught and were treated at the scene. Furthermore, the organizers of the "Bad Freienwalde is Colorful" initiative claimed at least one more participant was injured. But the attackers displayed their cowardice once more by fleeing towards Kanalstraße before the cops arrived.

Hunting the Attackers

Despite witnesses describing the perpetrators as teenagers and young adults, the authorities have yet to locate them. An investigation into the assault was launched, and given the possibility of a far-right motivation, the State Protection department is expected to take over the investigation.

A Festival for Love and Inclusion Turns Sour

The alliance "Bad Freienwalde is Colorful" had organized a rally against right-wing ideologies, hate, and incitement as part of the festival. René Wilke, Brandenburg's Interior Minister, reacted to the attack by stating, "Whoever attacks people who organize or participate in a family and children's festival moves far beyond what we as a society can accept and tolerate."

In the wake of this malevolent act, the community, in response, has shown an outpouring of support and solidarity. If you have any information about the culprits or the vehicles they used to escape, please contact the police at 03341-3300.

Stay informed! More updates will follow as the investigation progresses. Stay vigilant, and don't forget to celebrate diversity and inclusivity, even in the darkest times.
