Headline: Federal Police Apprehend Man Carrying Axe on ICE Train at Cologne Central Station
At Cologne Central Station, a police operation was initiated on Wednesday due to the discovery of an axe on board ICE train 127. Officers from the Federal Police quickly responded to the potential danger.
Witnesses on the train pointed out a 35-year-old German man to the officers. The man, who was reportedly suffering from a mental illness and had suicidal thoughts, was spotted on the platform at Cologne Central Station.
As the man attempted to leave the train unnoticed, he was apprehended on the platform. The officers equipped themselves with heavy gear and blocked off platform 4/5 to maintain safety.
The axe was found under a seat in the train, but witnesses reported no threat from the man - he did not use the axe. The man was brought to the ground by officers and was subsequently taken to a psychiatric clinic.
The Federal Police will initiate an administrative offence procedure against the man. However, the provided search results do not contain information about which authority will be handling these proceedings.
It is important to note that this incident did not result in any harm to passengers or staff. The Federal Police are urging anyone with information related to potential dangers on public transport to contact the authorities immediately.
Stay safe, and let's continue to support each other in maintaining a secure and peaceful public transportation system.
