Cologne (dpa) - In a forest in the east of Cologne, about 25 people celebrated a techno party on Sunday night.

Four young men between the ages of 20 and 23 had set up a professional music system and invited them to the party via a messenger service.

The guests ran away, the four organizers stayed because otherwise they would have left their facility in the lurch.

You would now have to answer for violations of the Corona Protection Ordinance, the police said on Monday.

The police only came across the party by chance: They drove into the forest with several patrol cars because a burglar alarm had been triggered on company premises.

This turned out to be a false positive.

During the operation, the exterior mirrors of two police cars were broken off.
