Police in Germany say the search is ongoing but that the identity of the suspect and circumstances behind the incident are unknown.

German police are searching for a man who abandoned a bag of explosives at a train station in Berlin and fled after being stopped by officers.

Police said they had attempted to stop the man for a routine ID check at the Neukölln station in the German capital on Wednesday afternoon. He ran away and explosives were found in the backpack he left behind, Berlin’s police force said in a post on X.

The explosive material was taken to a nearby park, where experts detonated it on Wednesday evening, according to the post.

    Because I posted a fun reasonable nonsense and y’all keep downviting and responding.

    There are better ways to disagree with reasonable discourse.

      Yeah, read the room. This is news about a foiled terrorist attack on a German train station. Not everything needs to be “fun”. Not everything needs to be nonsense. There are better ways to contribute, especially since you basically went “omg police handcuffed a suspect they wanna bdsm?” but for the bomb squad.
