A significant emergency operation unfolded in Munich following a devastating explosion that resulted in a fire and prompted extensive police and rescue efforts. A body has been recovered from the charred remains of the building, though authorities have not yet confirmed whether it is that of the 90-year-old father of the suspected perpetrator.
The incident occurred in the northern part of the city, where a 57-year-old man allegedly set fire to his parents' home before taking his own life as police arrived on the scene. Due to the extreme heat and the presence of explosives within the structure, emergency responders faced considerable challenges in accessing the site.
While the identity of the deceased remains unverified, they were believed to be inside the building at the time of the fire. Initial investigations revealed that the suspect had rigged the house with explosives, which necessitated a comprehensive response from law enforcement and emergency services.
The man's 81-year-old mother was found outside the residence suffering from a gunshot wound, while his 21-year-old daughter was rescued from the upper floor of the burning building with the assistance of a ladder. Additionally, a threatening letter linked to the incident resulted in a temporary closure of the Oktoberfest, causing significant disruption to the festivities.
Authorities suspect that a familial dispute may have been the catalyst for this tragic event, although specific details about the nature of the conflict have not yet been disclosed. The suspect, who resided in Starnberg, had no prior criminal record and was not known to police, except for a past petition submitted to the Bavarian Parliament regarding alleged misconduct at a local forensic institute related to paternity testing.
As the situation unfolded, the Munich Oktoberfest, which had been temporarily halted, resumed operations, with plans for the event to continue as scheduled through the weekend. A proposal to extend the festival by an additional day was swiftly rejected by city officials and event organizers, citing logistical challenges associated with such a last-minute decision.
