The man was armed with a rifle and wore a mask. He threatened the shop’s staff and demanded money from the till.

A customer eventually pointed out that the attacker was carrying a fake weapon. The perpetrator then fired two shots in the air before fleeing without his backpack full of money.

Passers-by tried to stop the man, who was eventually arrested by the authorities. It turned out he was indeed carrying a dummy weapon.

Several people were slightly injured in the incident on Nikolaus Theis Strasse.
