The Albanian who was arrested in Germany after entering a police station and threatening officers with a machete is suspected of having terrorist intentions.

The 29-year-old Albanian man walked into the police station in the small town of Linz am Rhein, between Koblenz and Bonn, around 2:40 a.m., repeatedly shouting "Allahu akbar" and said he wanted to kill the police.

The police officers closed the door of the police station while the suspect tried but failed to force it open.

Investigators who searched the suspect's apartment found an Islamic State group flag painted on a wall.

The incident in Koblenz follows an August 23 stabbing in the western city of Solingen, in which a suspected extremist from Syria is accused of killing three people./abcnews.al
