Germany: Hundreds of police storm Berlin squat, find no one there to evict

Police were left nonplussed during an eviction at Teppich Fabrik squat in Berlin, Tuesday, after officers discovered that the building’s inhabitants had already left the site.

About 200 police officers attempted a mass eviction of the former carpet factory in Berlin’s Friedrichshain district early on Tuesday morning, but had no one to remove from the building.
