Baum-Desaster in Meppen: Sachbeschädigung sorgt für Aufregung!

On April 23, 2025, the Meppen police were informed about serious property damage to a street tree in Gerstenfeldstrasse. The tree had been cut back so much that only the trunk was left - a clear total damage! After a call from the police, a witness reported on May 13, 2025 and took responsibility for this shocking intervention.

He stated that he tried to bring the tree "in shape", but accidentally cut too strongly. It was surprising for him that the unauthorized cutting back of urban trees was strictly forbidden. The police will now continue to examine the incident.
