Halle (dpa / sa) - After a long wait for accommodation for the riot police in Halle, everything went very quickly: In just ten days, construction workers set up the shell for the location of the 4th deployment hundred on the site of the state-owned Fliederweg barracks.

For this purpose, building modules were mounted on a prepared foundation, said a spokesman for the Interior Ministry on Wednesday.

A total of 13 million euros are available for the construction, the police should move in in the summer.

The state government had already decided in 2016 to station riot police again in Halle.

The other three hundreds of the riot police of Saxony-Anhalt are all housed in the state capital Magdeburg.

Riot police can be called in as reinforcements, but are mostly on duty at major events such as demonstrations or football games.
