Germany: Another arson attack on a chapel in Western Pomerania

An arson attack on a chapel located on the grounds of the Helios-Hanseklinikum hospital in Stralsund fortunately had no serious consequences. According to the police, the fire brigade was called out to the hospital grounds in the early hours of Thursday morning because an incendiary device had been thrown into the chapel. The incident was quickly noticed and the fire fortunately did not spread, so that in the end the damage to property was estimated at 250 euros, according to the police.

The incident is already the second arson attack on a church building in Western Pomerania within a few days. Last weekend, a fire – probably also caused by arson – in the chapel of St. Jürgen in Wolgast caused damage of several 100,000 euros. The chapel in Wolgast was also the second target of an arson attack. Further investigations must show whether the cases are actually connected.
