Police officers are seen in Munich after officers shot down a suspicious person seen carrying a gun near the Israeli Consulate and a museum on the city’s Nazi-era history, Sept. 5, 2024. Peter Kneffel/picture alliance/GettyThursday marked 52 years since the attack by Palestinian militants on the Israeli delegation at the 1972 Munich Olympics, which ended with the death of 11 Israeli team members, a West German police officer and five of the assailants. It was unclear whether the incident on Thursday was in any way related to the attack 52 years earlier.
Police said there was no evidence of any other suspects being connected to the incident. They increased their presence in the city, Germany’s third-biggest, but said they had no indication of incidents at any other locations or of any other suspects.
Five officers were at the scene at the time of the shooting, but police deployed to the area in force after the incident. Franken said he had no further details on the suspect or on his firearm.
Israel’s Foreign Ministry said the consulate in Munich was closed when the shooting occurred for a memorial event to mark the Olympics attack and that no consulate staff were hurt. The nearby Munich Documentation Center for the History of National Socialism, which opened in 2015 and explores the city’s past as the birthplace of the Nazi movement, also said all of its employees were unharmed.
