On January 4, 2025, old car tires were illegally dumped in a wooded area near Sinzig. The tires, some with oil stains, were scattered along a dirt road and caused significant environmental pollution. Local police have begun an investigation and are searching for clues to the perpetrators. Residents reported seeing a suspicious vehicle nearby the night before.
