Minister: The rampage could probably have been prevented. An armed perpetrator threatened teachers at the comprehensive school in Petershagen on Friday morning.
He was then caught shortly after the emergency call, said Stübgen. The attacker and a police officer were slightly injured. The police announced in the morning that it was a blank gun. The minister did not provide any information about the man's motive. He spoke of a “firearm-like” object, but gave no further details.
