THIS is irony: Syrian refugees save Neonazi-politician after car-accident

(article in german)

The town Büdingen in Germany. At the state-elections two weeks ago, the Neonazi-party NPD got 10.2% of the vote here.

Stefan Jagsch was until recently state-chairman of the NPD in the state of Hessen. He had a car-accident last Wednesday and was hurt very seriously. By chance, a busload of syrian refugees was driving by. They pulled him from the wreck and two of them delivered first-aid. According to further witnesses, by the time ambulance arrived, they had left and other bystanders had taken over.

That is impossible of course. The far-right promotes and relies upon anti-immigrant/refugee sentiment to gain political power.
