After a partial closure of Terminal I at Frankfurt Airport, the federal police gave the go-ahead. “Around 5:15 pm, a man left a suitcase in front of passport control in Terminal 1, shouted ‘Allahu Akbar’ (‘God is great’, the editor) and ran away,” a spokesperson told SPIEGEL. As a result, large parts of the terminal were cleared. Our forces arrested the man. The piece of luggage turned out to be harmless, the detained person can be assigned to the homeless community. “
The Fraport airport operator had previously confirmed a police operation that had been going on since around 5.30 p.m. According to a Fraport spokeswoman, Terminal 1, including arrivals and departures, was blocked, as was the associated regional train station and long-distance train station access.
According to the federal police spokesman, there were unconfirmed indications that a second or third person was walking armed through the airport. But that has not been confirmed. So far we have no indication of a dangerous situation, and now we are gradually reducing our measures again. We can give the go-ahead. “
Flight operations at Terminal 1 should resume soon, the spokesperson continued. However, it might still take a while. “A lot of people left their bags when they were cleared, now we have even more bags left in the terminal.”
