Oktoberfest reopens after fatal house fire and bomb threat
World-famous beer festival closed temporarily after man goes on deadly gun, explosives and arson rampage against his family
A German man went on a deadly gun, explosives and arson rampage against his family and then killed himself on Wednesday, sparking security fears in Munich that closed the world-famous Oktoberfest for seven hours.
Authorities decided to close the event temporarily after finding a note the man had dropped in a nearby letterbox that included a vague threat to the Bavarian city’s beer festival.
