Berlin police used force to break up a protest taking place inside a bus on Sunday in front of the far-right Alternative for Germany’s (AfD) national headquarters.

A very loud siren was heard from the bus, a police spokesman said. Many residents were unsettled and made emergency calls and complaints to the police, the police said in a post on social media.

The department said it had established the identity of three people involved in the incident.

The bus is well-known as being part of protest actions by the group Centre for Political Beauty, which reacted with outrage to the police action.
