German police order large mall to stay closed after attack threat


Police ordered a shopping mall in the western German city of Essen not to open Saturday after receiving credible tips of an imminent attack. The shopping center and the adjacent parking lot stayed closed as about a hundred police officers positioned themselves around the compound to make sure nobody could enter the mall. The mall is one of the biggest in Germany with more than 200 stores, according to the shopping center's website. In 2016, three people were injured in an attack on a Sikh temple in Essen by radicalized German-born Muslim teenagers. Last July, a 17-year-old Afghan refugee injured five people on a regional train in the central town of Wurzburg before he was killed by police.
