Overview

• At around 12:00 p.m. on June 5, an Amok-Alarm at the Berufsbildende Schule in Ingelheim am Rhein activated the school’s emergency system and mobilized numerous officers.
• Police instructed students and teachers to remain in their classrooms while conducting thorough room-by-room searches of the BBS premises.
• A neighboring Realschule was also placed under lockdown and parents were initially advised not to come to the school to pick up their children.
• Authorities report no evidence that the alarm was genuine and confirm that no injuries have been sustained.
• The incident follows a false alarm two weeks earlier during construction work and reflects a series of recent school alarm events across Germany.
