Confession letter following shooting at the Elbphilharmonie
Following the major incident at Hamburg's Elbphilharmonie, abendblatt.de has published details from the shooter's confession letter. The suspected perpetrator had apparently written the letter as a farewell note and marked it with the notation "For information", according to BILD.
Police evacuated the concert hall and cordoned off the surrounding area extensively. A special operations unit (SEK) searched the building. At the same time, two bodies were discovered in Eningen near Stuttgart — according to SWR, they are the wife and father-in-law of the suspected perpetrator from Hamburg. Two further persons were injured.
Investigators established a connection between the bodies in Baden-Württemberg and the incident in Hamburg. The precise contents of the confession letter as well as the background to the act are still being investigated by the authorities.
