Hamburg Airport is closed after a vehicle entered the grounds. An armed man broke through a gate with his vehicle and drove onto the airport tarmac around 8 p.m., a German Federal Police spokesman said.
The man had a gun and had already shot it into the air twice. He probably has two children on board.
Possible child abduction
The man’s wife had previously reported possible child abduction to state police, the spokesperson said. The newspaper ‘Bild’ first reported this.
Police “robustly equipped”
There are strong state and federal law enforcement forces on the ground, Gerbert said. They were close to the vehicle. This also includes the Evidence and Arrest Unit of the Federal Police. “They are very robustly equipped,” said the police spokesperson.
Hamburg airport was already closed in October, but at that time due to a threat of an attack on a plane from Tehran to Hamburg.
