Hamburg (dpa / lno) - The Hamburg police will show a high presence on the streets around December 24th - and not knock on private apartment doors for no reason.
"We will not go through the individual residential streets and stand at the windows and see how many people are sitting under the Christmas tree," said police spokeswoman Sandra Levgrün on Monday evening the "Hamburg Journal" of the NDR.
Instead, the police appeal to people to take responsibility.
However, this is not a free ticket for non-compliance with the Corona rules: "If we receive information that Christmas or New Year's Eve parties are taking place somewhere, we will of course take care of it."
They assume that there will be calls from neighbors who are concerned about Christmas and New Year's Eve - as has been the case for a long time.
Christmas and New Year's Eve are always busy times for the police, and that won't change this year either.
"The tasks will be a little different this year."
While the police otherwise had to take care of large parties and crowds, it is 202 about compliance with the corona rules.
«We will be very present.
Hardly any police officer in Hamburg actually has time off over the holidays. "
