Leipzig (dpa / sn) - After an excavator was set on again on Thursday night in Leipzig, the State Criminal Police Office of Saxony took over the investigation.
As a political background could not be ruled out, the "Soko LinX" was turned on, said the police in Leipzig.
The unknown perpetrators had penetrated the construction site in the Plagwitz district and set the excavator's hydraulic hoses on fire.
However, the employee of a security service was able to extinguish the flames.
There was property damage of an as yet unknown amount.
In Leipzig there are repeated attacks on construction machinery in various parts of the city.
There was also an arson attack on construction vehicles in Plagwitz last summer.
