Current police report: No vigilantism!

The Berlin police tweeted information about this case and also the advice not to resort to vigilantism.

“We are aware of the video and an investigation into violations of the Animal Welfare Act has been initiated. Yesterday the names and addresses of possible dog owners were spread online.

In two cases, people appeared at these addresses in Spandau and sometimes gained unauthorized access to the apartments. Emergency services were alerted. According to the current state of the investigation, the affected apartment owners have nothing to do with the case.

The result is investigations into trespassing, slander, threats and data protection violations. With all understanding of the urgent desire to save the dog and identify the person responsible - #vigilante justice is not an option!

Investigations and witness information belong in the hands of the police and public prosecutor's office and under no circumstances on the Internet.

Concrete information about the whereabouts of the four-legged friend or information about its possible owners can be reported to the police.
