Black and yellow a thorn in the side? Soccer fan damages cable
In the district of Gotha, a man damaged cables and associated parts at a construction site, causing property damage amounting to around 6,500 euros. According to the police on Monday, the soccer fan was probably annoyed by the colors black and yellow. The man was a supporter of a club with the club colors blue and white, they said. "Because of this, the cable bridges in the colors of the rival soccer club seemed to bother him," the police said. The removal of the cable bridges caused damage to the cables. Proceedings were initiated against the man.
Despite his love for soccer, the fan's team being the rival of the club with black and yellow colors led to an unusual act of crime. Intoxicated by his team's colors, blue and white, he found the cable bridges in the opposing team's colors disruptively curious.
