Hamburg actor Joel Williams ("Notruf Hafenkante", "Tatort") is in a psychiatric facility. The 29-year-old is now losing his job at the Kiel "crime scene" of the NDR.

Williams was seen in the episode "The Great Fury" as an IT forensic scientist and Axel Milberg assistant "Ole Addo" The decision to continue without Williams should not be due to his freak out on Tuesday evening, says an NDR spokeswoman.
