An explosion at a restaurant has killed at least one person and injured several others in the German city of Ansbach, near Nuremberg.

Although the cause of the blast remains unknown, early local media reports suggest the explosion could have been caused by a gas leak.

One person has been confirmed dead and at least 11 more are injured.

A nearby music festival has now been cancelled as Germany remains on high alert in the wake of a series of incidents in recent days.

A police spokesman in Ansbach confirmed that an explosion had been reported, but had no further information.

A spokesman for the Bavarian Interior Ministry said it was unclear if the blast was'accidental or intentional'.

This may very well be from a gas leak, but look at the additional chaos it causes when terrorists are let loose in a country.

Every incident is seen as a terrorist act, creating the same burdensome, frightened reaction, costing millions and alarming the entire nation.

Terrorism is a potent weapon!

A Moslem gas leak?

Terrorism is a potent weapon!

Yes I agree. I lived in Northern Virgina during the time of the beltway snipers.

[volunbeer]

I believe they have already said it was an IED

“Terrorism is a potent weapon!”

Far less potent if you have a leader that determines to put a stop to it. I haven’t seen any Nazi mass murders in the headlines lately.

But watch out for refrigerators... the biggest threat according to Kerry.

Early local media reports had suggested the explosion was caused by a gas leak - however a spokesman for the Bavarian Interior Ministry said the explosion was not an accident and appears to have been intentional.

As a precaution, a nearby open air music festival has now been cancelled with some 2,500 revellers evacuated as Germany remains on high alert in the wake of a series of incidents in recent days.

Unconfirmed reports on social media claimed a man with a backpack was denied entry to the festival just hours before the blast.

What BS!

Merkel’s limo seen heading for the Italian border.. I wish it was true.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

We may never know what caused the explosion.

[tomkat]

The town's mayor has now said the blast was intentional and caused by an explosive device, not an accidental gas explosion as earlier reports suggested.

Reap what you sow. Merkel will title her memoir “All This Blood On My Hands”.

Lived there for three years. A beautiful small city, loved the place.

Northumbria, 718 AD “Brida, if we’re nice to these Danes and welcome them, maybe we’ll all get along.”

Having been there and done that, you’d think the Saxons would know better,

Another source has already said early claims of gas leak false and that it was intentionally detonated.

Let the Merkel Times Roll!

It is German for "white Hispanic"

Probably just another disgruntled orphan loner acting the fool and going about harming innocent folk for no discernible reason.
