Police Arrest Gang of Migrants After Homeless Man Set Alight on Christmas Day
Breitbart London ^ | December 27, 2016 | Oliver JJ Lane

Berlin police released security camera pictures as part of their hunt for a gang of young migrants who they believe attempted to murder a homeless man in Christmas day by setting him alight.

Officers have now arrested seven men between the ages of 15 and 21-years-old including six Syrians and one Libyan after their faces were identified from security camera footage at Berlin’s Schonleinstrasse subway station. The attack took place in the early hours of Christmas day, reports Germany’s best-selling broadsheet Welt, when the gang came across a homeless man sleeping on a station platform bench.

Setting fire to the sleeping man’s clothing, he was only saved from serious injury by the intervention of a passer-by and subway train driver, who brought a fire extinguisher from the cab of his train. Berlin police are to charge the men with attempted murder.

The city force released the images on Monday afternoon, and by Tuesday morning all seven of the migrants believed responsible had been taken into custody. Six handed themselves in, and the seventh was the subject of a citizen’s arrest, reports the Berliner Morgenpost.

It is reported police are treating the 21-year-old Syrian as the ringleader of the migrant gang.

German media have linked the attempted murder of the sleeping homeless man with another recent brutal attack by migrants on the subway which went viral after security camera footage was leaked on the internet. Showing a group of men approach a young woman from behind as she descends the stairs, a strong kick sends her flying to the bottom.

The woman was later admitted to hospital for a broken arm.

Migrant/refugee children have lost all sense of decency.

Glad they got them. Whether they dare do anything to them is another story.

They will probably get community service and released back onto the streets.

Oh yeah, and free tuition at any public university.

Yes I had completely forgot about that. Add room and board,

One would think every European nation would be electing only officials that vow to end this madness immediately.

But their multi-party systems make that almost impossible.

Too bad Germans are unarmed. Someone could have gone Bernie Goetz on the “migrants.”

This is EXACTLY what we can expect from jihad migrants!!!!

All those treacly liberal PBS specials designed to make us sympathetic to the migrants are just so much treasonous twaddle!!!!

ALL muslim migrants in America and Europe must be sent back to the sandbox!!!! NO exceptions!!!! And the US must outlaw the muslim Brotherhood and all its front organizations, BAN CAiR, and CLOSE ALL muslim Brotherhood mosques!!!!

It doesn’t matter if lots of liberal protestant, Roman Catholic, and Jewish clergy who belong to Alinsky “interfaith” organizations defend these mosques. JUST CLOSE THEM!!!! PHOOEY!!!!
