German police arrest alleged kidnapper and free woman.







COLOGNE, Germany (Reuters) - German police arrested a man who took a woman hostage at the train station in Cologne and said the suspect, who was seriously injured in the rescue operation, was probably a Syrian citizen. 

Germany is on high alert for militant attacks, almost two years after a Tunisian Islamist rammed a hijacked truck into a Christmas market in central Berlin, killing 11 people and the driver. 

"The suspect is under control," police said in the western city of Cologne on Twitter. "A female hostage has suffered minor injuries and is being treated." The suspect was being resurrected. 

A spokeswoman said officers had forced their way to a pharmacy where the suspect was, adding that the reasons for the kidnapper were unclear. 

The suspect is probably a 55-year-old Syrian citizen, said deputy police chief of Cologne Miriam Brauns, adding that police found identification documents in the back of the pharmacy that showed the owner of the documents I was allowed to stay in Germany until the middle of 2021.

She was known to the police for crimes including theft and fraud, he said, adding that it was not certain that the owner of the documents was the hijacker. 

The incident caused the evacuation of the station. 

"We also do not rule out a terrorist attack," said Brauns. 

The police called the witnesses to provide them with photographs or videos that could help determine the suspect's motive. 

The German magazine Focus had previously reported that it appeared that several shots had been fired at the station, which is next to the city's cathedral, a major tourist attraction. 

The images taken outside the station showed that the steps of the cathedral were full of travelers carrying suitcases due to the evacuation.

German police also arrested eight men suspected of belonging to a right-wing militant group that attacked foreigners in the eastern city of Chemnitz and planned attacks against politicians.
