Carnival enthusiasts cheer and celebrate in front of the cathedral in Cologne, Germany, Thursday February 4, 2016. The street carnival has started in Cologne under increased security measures. After a string of robberies and sexual assaults on New Year's Eve in the city that police say were committed largely by foreigners, German authorities are keen to avoid a repeat of those events during the five-day street party.
