Police operation - Armed man at Dortmund main station: Arrest

Police officers have arrested an armed man at Dortmund Central Station. As the federal police announced on Sunday, a passer-by had reported on Friday evening that a person was shooting around with a soft air pistol on the forecourt. When the officers confronted the suspect, he stated that there were weapons in his bag. In fact, the officers found a softair pistol with two bullets, a blank pistol without ammunition and a field knife.

The 32-year-old was initially cooperative, but suddenly resisted during the search and insulted the officers. He was therefore provisionally arrested. Preliminary proceedings were initiated against the man for resisting law enforcement officers and violating the Weapons Act.
