Three young men held responsible for a series of neo-Nazi incidents in recent weeks were under arrest today.

Police gave their names as Rainer Burghardt and Guenther Pfeiffer, students, and Gerd Kouslk, a taxi driver. The three had confessed blasting the Italian Embassy, the office of an Italian airline, the American embassy, and that at almost every scene of their crimes, they had left anti-Semitic pamphlets.
