Aachen Police Balance Sheet

After a total of nine gatherings today, Saturday, the police draw a mixed balance. The march "We are Aachen - Nazis are not" began around 3:30 pm with about 5500 participants at the Aachen Arcades and moved peacefully and loudly to Aachen Central Station.

The use of immediate force prevented a confrontation with the demonstrators. No officers were injured.
