Additionally, a helicopter was spotted hovering over the city center, adding to the sense of urgency. Patrol cars were stationed on Behlertstrasse, further adding to the spectacle.

Despite the visible police presence, the Potsdam police remained tight-lipped about the incident when questioned by the Potsdamer Neuesten Nachrichten (PNN) later in the evening. The police stated that they were actively investigating the situation and would provide further details once they had more information.
