On 18 May 2006, the online newspaper Prague Daily Monitor reported that three neo- Nazis broke into an apartment building in the central Czech town of Neratovice and, while banging on the doors to their flats, threatened to kill the Romani inhabitants. The neo-Nazis, aged 16-20, broke windows with rocks and shouted threats and racist slogans. The Prague Daily Monitor reported that the police, who arrived at the scene within 10 minutes, immediately detained the attackers. As of 14 September, no further information was available in the case.
