Nuremberg (dpa / lby) – hit and run at the world-famous Nuremberg Christkindlesmarkt: Because a vehicle got stuck on a Christmas stand, the roof of the stand has been torn from its anchorage. Numerous wooden figures inside the stand fell to the ground. The police estimate the damage to be in the five-digit range, a spokesman said on Wednesday.

It has not yet been possible to determine who is responsible for the incident. Without caring, the driver of the car is said to have driven away. The stand was reportedly damaged between Monday evening and Tuesday morning.
