Police ___29___ the eggs came from a freighter that lost part of its cargo during an unusually ___30___ storm, the worst to hit Germany's northeastern coast since 2006.

"At first I thought this was a wonder, because everything was so ___32___, but then we realized that this is a huge ___33___ in the end," said the mayor. He also noted the plastic bags and other materials that have washed ashore on the island can cause serious problems for ___34___.
