Verdächtiger Gegenstand: Umspannwerk in Dormagen – Polizei spricht von Sabotagedelikt
Nach den Attacken auf Umspannwerke in Nordrhein-Westfalen und Brandenburg liegt der Polizei ein Bekennerschreiben vor. Darin wird auch ein weiteres Ziel genannt.
A suspicious object was discovered at a transformer station in Dormagen, located between Cologne and Düsseldorf, leading the police to suspect a sabotage crime. According to a spokesperson for the Cologne police, a confession letter was received, mentioning other suspicious cases already known publicly in North Rhine-Westphalia and Brandenburg.
The investigation into the suspicious object, found by a passerby on Thursday evening at the Dormagen transformer station, is not yet complete. It is possible that it is a "suspect discharge mechanism," the spokesperson said in the night. According to the "Bild" newspaper, discharge mechanisms for homemade rockets were discovered.
The building plans reportedly had stopwatches and copper wires attached. The police officially wished to confirm these reports. Officials were also checking other transformer stations in surrounding regions for similar suspicious objects, the police spokesperson added. At present, with the exception of the Dormagen transformer station west of Cologne, no damage has been detected.
