Germany hiking group reported to police as illegal migrants

Huge "Mann-aus-Sachsen"-energy

Maybe I'm just a silly American, but what kind of weirdo reports foreigners to police for being suspected migrants? Best case scenario ends like this where you end up looking like a racist dick. Like, I understand reporting actual crime to police, but the likelihood that you've run across nefarious immigrants out to cause harm is really low compared to the likelihood that they're legal citizens or tourists. And even in the off chance that they are illegal migrants, existing shouldn't be a crime, it's none of your business, shut your mouth and leave them alone.
