Dozens of suspected far-right extremists have rampaged through the eastern German town of Bautzen, “hunting” refugees, according to local media. Police denied the incident, but have been accused of a cover-up and inaction.

A mob of up to 50 stone-throwing locals reportedly chased migrants from Bautzen town center on Tuesday night, the second such incident in two weeks, according to Die Zeit.

The far-right activists took to cars and bikes to ‘hunt’ migrants down. Most of them were wearing dark clothing with German Imperial flags and right-wing-badges, while some of their cars had slogans such as “White Power” written on them, according to a Sueddeutsche Zeitung report.

A small police team was present at the time of the incident but apparently did not interfere until the refugees began to run from the mob, who had gathered at the town’s market square, the newspaper reported.

One migrant was subsequently hit by a bicycle ridden by one of the suspected far-right group, and later suffered a cut from a stone which hit him. Officers also rescued a second migrant and escorted him away in their vehicle.
