Power supply: Power sabotage: Police raid suspect's vehicle
Attempts to sabotage the German power grid have drawn attention, with a confession letter. The police have found the author's vehicle - but he himself is on the run.
German police are searching for a 48-year-old man suspected of sabotage against the country's power grid. The man, believed to be acting alone, left behind a manifesto claiming his actions were motivated by a desire to stop fossil fuel-based power generation, which he called a "crime". The police found explosive materials at his home in Gevelsberg, North Rhine-Westphalia, and stormed a truck in Niederzier that appeared to have been converted into a mobile home.
The authorities are investigating several sabotage attempts at power plants and substations in Germany, including incidents in Dormagen, Weisweiler, and Jänschwalde.
