Police remove pig heads from bridge

Before risk game Rostock against St. Pauli

It’s a high-risk game: St. Pauli plays against Hansa Rostock on Saturday evening. The focus is on the fan camps of both sides. The police are alerted – and had to take care of an unsightly action before the game.

The fans of FC St. Pauli were given an unsavory reception before the second division game against arch-rival Hansa Rostock on Saturday evening. The police had to remove five pigs’ heads from a bridge over the A20, which had been placed next to graffiti with the words “St. Pauli pigs”.

A police spokeswoman confirmed to the Ostsee-Zeitung that the pigs’ heads were removed by the Rostock fire brigade’s animal rescue service. “We are investigating property damage, insult and a violation of the Animal Carcass Disposal Act,” she said.

The game between Rostock and St. Pauli starts at 8.30 p.m.
