Three unknown men are said to have killed a swan and then thrown it into the Nymphenburg Palace Canal. As the Munich police headquarters reported on Monday, a witness called the emergency number around 10:15 p.m. on Sunday night.
She saw how the three perpetrators severely injured the animal in the neck and then threw it into the water at the level of the Ludwig-Ferdinand Bridge.
The bird floated lifeless in the canal and was pulled out of the water by the fire brigade. The police filed a complaint of animal cruelty and began investigating. If there are other witnesses, they can contact Commissariat 67 on 089/2 91 00.
