Viernheim: Supermarket door damaged by fire – police are looking for witnesses

Early on Tuesday morning (March 22nd), two masked people tried to set fire to a supermarket selling Eastern European specialties on Mannheimer Straße. At around 2.35 a.m. a liquid was poured onto the entrance door of the market in order to then ignite it. This resulted in a deflagration. The fire then went out on its own. There was damage to the business door amounting to around 2000 euros.

The investigation into the attempted arson is being carried out by investigators from the State Police in Darmstadt. In this context, witnesses are being sought who saw suspicious people and vehicles in the Mannheimer Strasse area at the time of the crime. Telephone: 06151 / 969-0. ( source )
