German Police in Munich say they have arrested a 16-year-old Afghan friend of David Ali Sonboly, who killed nine people at a Munich shopping centre last Friday. They say the teenager is under investigation for failing to report the attacker’s plans, and that he could have been an accomplice. Sonboly, 18, had been planning his attack for a year, police said earlier.
They say he had a Glock pistol which he may have bought on the so-called dark net. A statement on Munich police’s Facebook page says there is a suspicion that the 16-year-old is a possible tacit accomplice to the attack. Police say they are now investigating him on suspicion of failing to report a planned crime.
