such as beatings

The agency speaks of hundreds of letters with
"very critical"
content via email and on social media.
Only at least they were extremely aggressive, but in total enough that the district administrator called the
police
on Monday
.
"He handed over some letters to the police, but there are actually too many letters, postings and
online comments
for one to really keep an overview," writes District Office press officer Sophie Stadler.
"With every understanding that you want to get out into nature, some
limits
have recently been
exceeded
."
Due to falling corona incidence: Ban on excursions in the Miesbach district lifted
The district office has meanwhile
canceled
the cause of the
hostility
, the "general decree prohibiting tourist excursions in the Miesbach district", yesterday.
As of today, residents of other districts are allowed to go on
tourist excursions
in the district
again
.
The dispute about whether Munich residents in particular should go to the Tegernsee region during Corona times has been going on for months.

However, this decision has nothing to do with the hostility: As is well known, the district office had originally issued the order by January 31, after the
incidence in the district was over 200
had risen.
Because the incidence has been falling for weeks - the district office reported a value of 69 for Monday - the authority announced last week that it would reconsider the order on Monday.
When the
Ministry of Health
also pointed out on Friday that counties, in which the
incidence
has fallen significantly and permanently, are
banned from excursions
must repeal, the end of the order was predetermined.
Hostility from both sides: residents in Miesbach want to ban day trippers back
This end has also shown: District residents
apparently do not need to point the finger at day
trippers
because of the
hostility
towards Löwis
.
According to Stadler, the district administrator received dozens of messages from
locals
on Monday
, "who criticize in pithy words that the ban has now been lifted".
The 15-kilometer rule, according to which district residents were allowed to exceed the boundaries of their hometowns by a maximum of 15 kilometers, had already been lifted on Saturday.
