After suspected kidnapping in Dresden – witness admits lying
A girl is said to have been held by a person wearing a black cloth mask, but then fled into a forest. The search remains unsuccessful. Now it turns out: the witness probably made it up.
According to the information, the passerby made an emergency call on Monday morning. She stated that she observed a child being harassed by an unknown person. The woman also stated that the elementary school-aged girl was able to break away and fled into a smaller area of forest. The perpetrator ran after her. Until the early evening, around 180 riot police officers combed the forest to get information about the whereabouts of the two.
