After the fire and explosions in a house in Munich, a dead person was found. In addition to the suspect who committed suicide, someone else died. The German police report this at a press conference.
Investigators suspect that it is the ninety -year -old father of the suspect. The body was seen on heat images, but the house could only be entered early in the evening due to the heat. The 81-year-old mother and 21-year-old daughter were injured.
Early in the morning a fire broke out at the house in the southern German city. Witnesses heard and shots heard. Later the police found several booby traps at the building. A few cars have also been burned out in the vicinity of the house. According to the police, a family quarrel is probably the motive of the fire.
The suspect, a 57-year-old man from Starnberg, has killed himself at a nearby lake. He carried explosives without having a permit for that, the police wrote earlier in a statement. A letter from the suspected perpetrator was also found with a “verified threat with explosives directed against the Oktoberfest”.
The letter was stopped for hours and explosives were sought. The Bavarian interior minister Joachim Herrmann emphasizes that it is now clear that there was no danger to the Oktoberfest and that people can visit the party “without fear”.
Earlier in German media there was talk about possible involvement of protest movement Antifa. On a left extremist website, a message about arson and an attack would have been posted on Wednesday morning. The police have invalidated that and says it is a copycat.
