Arsenal legend Jens Lehmann faces new claims of vandalizing a neighbor’s house just months after he was accused of bringing a chainsaw to his new garage.
The former Gunners goalkeeper is already under investigation for the chainsaw attack, allegedly caused by the garage blocking his view of Lake Starnberg in Germany.
Now police are investigating whether the 52-year-old former German national team goalkeeper could be responsible after his neighbor’s internet cable was cut.
The unnamed 91-year-old neighbor told German media: ‘Someone has cut the telecom data cable.
“My internet was connected to it, as was the surveillance camera that Mr. Lehmann filmed during his chainsaw operation in July.”
Due to construction work, the cable was only temporarily laid above ground.
The architect cannot say for sure who cut the cable and there are reportedly no witnesses yet.

The accusation comes just months after he allegedly brought a chainsaw to a neighbor’s garage
Lehmann was a member of Arsenal’s ‘Invincibles’ team which went unbeaten in 2003-04
Lehmann also earned 61 caps for Germany over a 10-year period between 1998 and 2008
It is for this reason that he has allegedly filed a complaint against unknown persons.
Chief Prosecutor Andrea Grape of the Munich Public Prosecutor’s Office reportedly said: “Investigations are ongoing into recent property damage.”
Lehmann allegedly broke into his neighbor’s property in Berg am Starnberger See in July with a chainsaw before tore off the power cable from the camera installed there on a scaffold.

He then allegedly used the Stihl saw to cut off a roof beam that allegedly blocked his view of Lake Starnberg.
But Lehmann did not know that the security camera filmed everything because, according to local media, the camera continued to run on batteries.
A police operation followed, with officials securing the video and taking photos as evidence. Since then, Jens Lehmann has been examined for material damage.
There may also be a charge with a trial.
