Suicide alert level remains high in Munich

The terror alert level in the southern German city of Munich remains high, after a night during which two train stations had to be shuttered amid New Year's festivities because of worries about an attack, dpa cited authorities as saying Friday .

"We still can't give an all clear. The increased terror alert continues for the time being," said a police spokesman.

He noted that investigations are in high gear, but there have been no arrests to date.

Two city train stations - including its central one - were shut down in the final hours of 2015 after police, acting on a foreign intelligence tip, issued a terrorism warning. Details about the exact nature of the threat and the people involved remain unclear.
