He approached his first victim outside the terminal building at one of Europe’s busiest airports as he was about to board a bus, asked him for a cigarette and if he was being deployed to Afghanistan.
The airman answered in the affirmative, and the gunman, armed with a nine-millimetre pistol, a magazine with 14 bullets plus two knives, shot him in the back of the head, killing him.
Boarding the bus, he cried “Allahu Akhbar” (“God is Greatest”), Griesbaum said, and shot the driver in the head. He also died.
He then shot two other soldiers, one in the head and the other in the chest, leaving him with life-threatening injuries. Both were in intensive care in a Frankfurt hospital.
He then went up to a fifth serviceman, “lifted his pistol to his head and pulled the trigger twice,” Griesbaum told reporters.
But the gun jammed.
The man then fled into the terminal building, but the serviceman he had just tried to kill seconds before chased after him and overpowered him, with the help of German police.
