When the police searched two schools in Essen on Thursday, no explosive devices were found.
That said NRW Interior Minister Herbert Reul (CDU) on Thursday afternoon in Düsseldorf.
"Every corner of the classroom is turned inside out."
Essen – In the morning the police started a large-scale operation at the Don Bosco high school in Essen-Borbeck and at the secondary school at Borbeck Castle.
The home of the suspected 16-year-old German high school student had previously been searched by the SEK.
Reul said ten explosive dogs were also used in the two schools.
A total of 123 officers were involved in the campaign.
