BERLIN — German police in a spa town north of Frankfurt were expanding a manhunt for one or more suspects still on the loose after two Turkish men were fatally shot a day earlier, reports said Sunday.
Police in the Hesse region said the two victims were gunned down in a residential area of Bad Nauheim, about 35 kilometers (about 22 miles) north of Frankfurt, and a motive was not immediately known.
German news agency DPA said authorities could not rule out that one or more suspects might have been involved, and the crime appeared to have been motivated by personal reasons. Citing police and prosecutors, the agency said the two victims were a father-in-law aged 59, and a son-in-law aged 28.
According to Hessenschau, a regional publication linked to a public broadcaster, a large police contingent was deployed after the shootings on Saturday, and local residents indicated that special forces had been sent to the site, along with emergency vehicles and a police helicopter.
