Frankfurt a. M. – Large-scale operation with the police in Frankfurt. Passers-by had alerted the police. A man, presumably armed, was near a mosque in the Fechenheim district. A total of three people are said to have behaved conspicuously.
The man now faced the emergency services. The other two people were also provisionally arrested, the police said. The suspects had previously been in a building opposite the mosque.
