German police: Frankfurt Airport terminal partly evacuated

BERLIN — Police evacuate part of a terminal at Frankfurt Airport, Germany’s biggest, over concerns that at least one person may have entered the facility’s security area unchecked.

Federal police say they stopped boarding in area A of the airport’s Terminal 1 and were clearing the security area.

Police spokeswoman Julia Thiel tells The Associated Press that “there were indications that at least one person entered the security area in area A without authorization, and so we have to clear the security area.”

It isn’t immediately clear how many people are affected.
