Anne Frank chestnut tree stolen from German school

None

Police say a sapling cloned from the tree that lifted Anne Frank's spirits while she hid from the Nazis in Amsterdam has been felled and stolen from outside a school in Frankfurt bearing the name of the Jewish teenage diarist.

 

Spokesman Manfred Fuellhardt said Wednesday the 2.5 meter (8-foot) tree was felled over the weekend in the grounds of the Anne Frank School. (AP)
