Berlin police have confirmed that a grenade was found in the home of former suspected RAF terrorist Daniela Klette in Kreuzberg.
“So far, our forensic scientists have taken a grenade out of the building on Sebastianstrasse in #Kreuzberg and rendered it harmless at another location,” the police said on X (formerly Twitter) on Wednesday evening.
Berlin - “Further items are currently being examined.”
In the evening, an officer from the explosive ordnance disposal service brought out an object that resembled a small grenade.
He stowed the item in a security box in a car on Wednesday evening, as a dpa reporter observed.
“It looks like a mortar shell, but it's not, but it's very close,” said a police officer.
The police had previously cleared the apartment building early in the evening.
All residents had to leave their apartments.
The sidewalk was closed.
“Our forensic science team is currently investigating the potentially dangerous items found during the apartment search,” the police wrote on the Internet.
During the course of Wednesday, the police discovered other weapons, as a spokeswoman for the Lower Saxony State Criminal Police Office confirmed on Wednesday evening.
The “Tagesspiegel” reported on firearms found.
After Klette was arrested on Monday evening, the police discovered, among other things, magazines from a pistol and cartridges.
