He said he could not immediately comment on the possible motive for the act of vandalism.The European head of Facebook is under investigation in Germany over the social network's alleged failure to remove racist hate speech.The investigation was announced last month as German politicians and celebrities voiced concern about the rise of anti-foreigner comments in German on Facebook and other social media as the country struggles to cope with a refugee influx.
