SEK operation in Bohnsdorf: shooter threatens to kill after violent argument

In Bohnsdorf, a district of Berlin, there was an alarming incident on Sunday evening in which a 32-year-old man threatened to kill a 53-year-old person. The riot probably began around 6:30 p.m. when the extremely dangerous threat to kill the 53-year-old with a firearm was made during an argument. After this verbal argument, the 32-year-old walked away, which resulted in rapid police intervention. The officers were immediately alerted and took the initiative. As [tixio.de](https://www.tixio.de/951471-sek-satz-in-bohnsdorf-nach-streit-mit-todes Threat.html) reports, a search warrant was obtained for the 32-year-old's apartment.

A special operations team (SEK) was mobilized to enforce the search warrant. The emergency services forced open the apartment door and found two men inside, including the accused 32-year-old. He was immediately arrested before officers began searching the apartment. What surprised the police, however, was the fact that no firearm was found, suggesting that the threat may not have been intended to involve real use of weapons. After the 32-year-old's identity was established, he was released. Further investigations are now being continued by police section 35, as berlin.de notes.
