Dramatic scenes took place at Cologne/Bonn Airport on Friday morning. A man (57) suspected of being mentally ill deliberately drove into people and other cars in the P2 multi-storey car park at 9.30 a.m., according to police.
Several people were injured in the crime, most of them slightly, police said. Most of them suffered from shock.
“The perpetrator kept driving back and forth,” police spokesman Christoph Gilles tells BILD. “He rammed several vehicles with a black rental van.”
There was an inconceivable brutality in the act: the man rammed an Audi A5 with full force, hurled it against the driveway until the entire barrier system was torn out of its anchorage.
He also rammed the van into a Kia and a Volvo parked in the car park.
The man resisted when the police overpowered him. Two officers were also injured. The driver was taken to hospital for a doctor to decide on his mental condition.
