Merseburg (dpa/sa) - A man triggered a major police operation in Merseburg with incomprehensible statements. The 25-year-old walked through the city on Thursday afternoon and may have had a dangerous object with him, the police said in the evening. Because he was not ready to talk, a special task force (SEK) was turned on. According to current knowledge, no one was injured or attacked, said a police spokesman. The man is now in a medical facility.
According to the police, the 25-year-old was found in his apartment in the early evening hours. Employees from the regulatory and rescue services were called. Finally, rescue workers brought the man to the facility. The police now want to clarify the background of the man's behavior with the help of other possible witnesses.
