German police said on Friday they had arrested a male suspect after a special unit stormed a pharmacy in the southwestern city of Karlsruhe, where multiple people had been held hostage for hours.

A number of explosions were heard when officers in tactical gear entered the pharmacy in the city centre after first arriving on the scene at around 4:30 p.m.

Police "were able to arrest the suspected perpetrator and also free the hostages,” Karlsruhe police spokesman, Dennis Krull, told Reuters Television.

“It is very good that there were no injuries, neither on the part of the hostages, nor on the part of the emergency forces or the perpetrator,” said Krull.

Officers restrained a man they had brought out of the pharmacy, covered his head in a blanket and bundled him into a car.
