Extremely often, charges are filed to the police because unknown persons leave damage in the Lutherchurch in Oberfrohna and the Church in Rußdorf. Suspects have already been spotted running away. Christiane Zitzkat, a pastor, commented that the damages happen "every week", and in the summertime more often than in winter.
