Reward Posted in Attack on Holocaust Memorial
German authorities have posted a $10,000 reward for clues leading to an arrest in the firebombing of a museum honoring the victims of a Nazi death march.
The attack Thursday night destroyed the main exhibition of the death march museum in the Belower Woods, which detailed how the Nazis drove concentration camp inmates deeper into Germany as the Soviet army advanced at the end of World War II, with 700 to 800 prisoners dying of exhaustion or hunger.
Outside, vandals painted a big red swastika, two SS symbols and an anti-Semitic slogan.
