City of Bocholt - A man, aged 40, threatens students with a firearm.

Over the lunch hour, a man appeared on the school premises and menaced a pupil with a pistol. He aimed the weapon straight up in the air and fired, yet no bullet came out. He also demonstrated hostile conduct towards a teacher, but skedaddled from the schoolyard once numerous students banded behind the tutor.

The suspect, a 40-year-old, who had a criminal history, was quickly traced and detained by the police in Langenbergpark. During his apprehension and search of his person and house, traces of drugs believed to be amphetamines and the suspected murder weapon, a soft air gun, were discovered and confiscated.

The public order office was summoned to assess the probability of admitting him to a mental institution. Consequently, the individual was committed to a proper health care center, and legal proceedings were launched.
