BERLIN (AP) — German police in a spa town north of Frankfurt
were expanding a manhunt for one or more suspects still on the
loose after two Turkish men were fatally shot a day earlier,
reports said Sunday.
Police in the Hesse region said the two victims were gunned down
in a residential area of Bad Nauheim, about 35 kilometers (about
22 miles) north of Frankfurt, and a motive was not immediately
known.
German news agency DPA said authorities could not rule out that
one or more suspects might have been involved, and the crime
appeared to have been motivated by personal reasons. Citing
police and prosecutors, the agency said the two victims were a
father-in-law aged 59, and a son-in-law aged 28.
According to Hessenschau, a regional publication linked to a
public broadcaster, a large police contingent was deployed after
the shootings on Saturday, and local residents indicated that
special forces had been sent to the site, along with emergency
vehicles and a police helicopter.
