Four Germans were apprehended by police in western Austria for laying white roses in memory of Adolf Hitler at the house where the Nazi dictator was born. The incident occurred on the anniversary of Hitler's birth, April 20, 1889, in Braunau am Inn.
Last year, efforts began to convert Hitler's birth home into a police station to deter individuals who seek to glorify Hitler from visiting the site. Despite these measures, the four Germans, two sisters and their partners in their 20s and early 30s, visited the building to place white roses in its window recesses.
