That Overath Christmas Fest Story

I commented about this 2 days ago...Overath (up in the far NW of Germany)...cancelling the city (21k residents) Christmas fest over the problem  of lacking funds for security requirements.

Well....things have picked up and gotten more interesting.  The city administration said they were not going to pay for the extra security required.  The fest organizers said they could  not cover the cost.

This AM....the city came back and oddly said...."According to the current assessment, there is no concrete threat to events in Overath." 

Yeah....they assess zero threat.

Terrorism measures are deemed unnecessary. 

Now....they do say....a wall exists already at this site....and direct vehicle access is impossible (I haven't seen the images....so I can't vouch for that).

Most cities in Germany are now in the final 10 days of planning, and operations would  start  to occur around the 3rd week of November.
