Hamburg-Schnelsen: Updating the Location - Police apprehend firearms dealer (45)

The State Office of Criminal Investigation's State Security Department is spearheading an investigation after getting a tip that a 45-year-old Turk planned to purchase multiple semi-automatic weapons. During this endeavor, the suspect encountered an undercover investigator who he initially tried to buy a Glock 19 handgun from for 1,500 euros.

The man was apprehended by a specialized squad while handing over the payment. The investigators obtained a search warrant from the Hamburg public prosecutor's office, which was authorized by the local court. This led to the confiscation of crime-related evidence from the suspect's vehicle and residence, including a shotgun, ammunition, a prohibited switchblade knife, electronic communication devices, and more than 33,000 euros in cash.

The suspect was taken to the detention center, and a warrant for violating the Weapons Act has been issued against him.
