A police helicopter was used to search for the perpetrator on Sunday evening, circling over the city center and leading to concerned inquiries from residents. The police called for avoiding the area and not picking up hitchhikers.
The bar in the city of Offenbach was largely cordoned off with warning tape late on Sunday evening, and police officers could be seen inside. A police car blocked off the street next to it. The police were on site with numerous emergency services, and the federal police were also on duty. Flashlights were used to search the neighboring railroad tracks.
