In the city of Villach, a threeth vandalism event causes excitement. Last weekend, the popular window doll, which is part of the urban decoration in Freihausgasse, not only damaged, but even halved. A group of Scherzbolden had kidnapped Franky's upper body and dropped it off at the Faaker See. His legs, on the other hand, stayed behind and were waiting in Villach for the return of her friend.

The city administration, specifically the city green department, has intensively tried to make the cityscape alive through creative and seasonal decorations. These dolls, which are often redesigned, are supposed to enjoy the citizens and visitors. But the kidnapping of Franky, who had only lost his girlfriend Luise a year ago, throws a shadow on these efforts.

Franky's fate

The loss of Franky's girlfriend Luise Last year was already a bitter blow for the doll family. At that time it was also kidnapped and could never be found again. In order to comfort the grieving Franky, the city acquired two new dolls, citronella and Florentina. But the joy only lasted briefly, since Franky himself was now the goal of irrational humor. "Franky's upper body is now sitting on a bench in Egg with excavated shoulder," as a press spokeswoman for the city of Villach reported. At the same time, his legs together with Zitronella and Florentina in Villach are waiting for the return of the upper body.

The consequences of vandalism

For the city, the incident is not only a nuisance, but also an expensive matter. According to the press release, such vandalisms arise from additional financial effort, since the repairs and the purchase of new dolls incur proper costs. "People should have a nice experience when they go through the city," explains the press spokeswoman. "Such actions are not funny, but harmful." In her opinion, the humor in the destruction is not in good condition, and such acts simply do not belong in a civilized society.

should not only be avoided the fate of dolls such as Franky and Luise, but also the destruction of other decorations that suffered from similar circumstances. Parts of the Easter decoration have also been stolen or damaged in the past. The city administration calls citizens to more mindfulness and civil courage to prevent such acts together. On their Facebook profile, the city appeals to the population: "Please leave Franky and his dear cousins ​​where they belong. Good humor is different."
