UPDATE 9/7 - Well, golly gee. Germany's top federal domestic security chief, Hans-Georg Maassen, President of the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution, has stated that reports that right-wing "extremists" were chasing down non-Germans during demonstrations in Chemnitz cannot be verified.
"I share the scepticism towards media reports of right-wing extremists chasing down [foreigners] in Chemnitz," Hans-Georg Maaßen told Bild.
A video that was shared online claimed to show far-right protesters chasing after people who looked non-German. Maaßen said: "There is no evidence to suggest that the video of this alleged incident circulating online is authentic."
