Unknown assailants apparently fired shots at a flower shop in Berlin's Wilmersdorf district. Police said Wednesday that officers found several suspected bullet holes in the shop windows. The owner believes the damage occurred between Monday evening and late Tuesday morning. No one was injured, according to police.
It was not the first incident: the woman had reported similar damage in September. Both cases are now being handled by the state criminal police's special unit "Ferrum," which investigates organized crime and protection racketeering. Police gave no information on suspects or a possible motive.
