Ex-employee threatens to kill his boss
The whole thing had started when the police had learned about alleged death threats of a 43-year-old man against his superiors. Apparently, the man had learned of his imminent termination and subsequently threatened to kill his superiors. It was for this reason that the police had then searched some properties in the possession of the suspect on Friday. “Individual finds involve radioactive materials and potentially contaminated objects,” the police and employees of the responsible Ministry of the Environment announced on Friday evening. The officials involved in the operation assume that the seized items
“of a not insignificant dangerousness” had been. During the raid, among other things, radioactive substances had been found, which were brought to the radiation protection laboratory of the Lower Saxony State Office for Water Management, Coastal and Nature Conservation (NLWKN) and are now to be examined there. “There is no danger to the population and the environment,” the authorities wrote in their statement.
