Berlin: The hostage drama at the Hamburg airport in Germany ended after 18 hours. A young man who held his own four-year-old daughter hostage made the entire country tense for three-quarters of a day. After long hours of negotiations and persuasion efforts, the young man finally surrendered to the security agencies.
A 35-year-old man broke through the security cordon and entered the airport, taking his own daughter hostage on Saturday evening local time. After it became clear that he had weapons in his possession, the operation of the airport was stopped.
After long negotiations and persuasion efforts, the young man expressed his willingness to surrender. A psychologist was also brought in for peace talks. The police informed that the accused has been arrested. The young man is ripe for adventure following an argument with his wife over the child.
The young man entered the airport in the north of the city of Hamburg late Saturday evening with a car through the security arrangements. It is reported that he entered after firing two rounds and creating panic in the airport premises. There are also indications that two petrol bombs were thrown during this. After entering the runway, the car stopped under an airplane.
Around 3,000 passengers were stranded at the airport due to the hostage drama. Around 60 services were canceled or diverted in 18 hours.
