Frank Magnitz, leader of the AFD in Bremen, was attacked by three masked men Monday afternoon. He was taken to the hospital, unconscious and with severe injuries.

”They beat him with a wooden joist until he was unconscious, and kicked him as he lay on the ground,” writes the party in a statement. The attack should have been stopped by a passing construction worker.

In the last week destroyed a AFD-office of an explosive device in Saxony.
