Bottrop Excitement at the Bottrop Movie Park: Around 10,000 visitors were forced to leave Friday night after a bomb threat. Meanwhile, the police presume that a personal argument was a motive. A visitor should probably "spoil the evening".

Behind the bomb warning for a park of attractions in Bottrop, lies a private dispute between a group of relatives and acquaintances, police said Saturday. Only one member of this group should receive the telephone warning on Friday night.

After night interrogations, we see: "This one person who was in the amusement park, you wanted to spoil the fun." About 10,000 people have had the area of ​​Movie Park Germany, according to police, who took leave on Saturday. An acute danger was not apparent. At night, the police gave the green light. The investigation revealed that "the content was fictitious when calling for the warning".

As a precaution, the park was closed to visitors. Only when there were more visitors to the site, the police announced the reason for the evacuation. Visitors reacted calmly and with discipline to calls from emergency services and announcements from loudspeakers who were demanding to leave the park, it was said.

During the campaign, the Movie Park, among others via Facebook, is addressed to visitors in order to thank them for the orderly departure of the site and to ensure that visitor safety is "the highest priority". The information relating to an evacuation of the park was initially described as "defective" on the site, it would no longer act as visitors admitted. The police subsequently confirmed the complete evacuation of the site.

On Friday night, shortly before 9 pm, there were no more guests on the site, where a "Halloween Horror Festival" with "scary attractions and shows" was on the program that night. The Movie Park in Kirchhellen District is a seasonal amusement park focused on cinema.

In 2015, a telephone bomb alert resulted in an evacuation during the ProSieben broadcast "The next German top model" in Mannheim. 10,000 people had to leave the event hall. The anonymous call came from a telephone booth in Cologne.
