German police say they have captured a suspect believed to be planning a bomb attack.
"Tired but overjoyed: we captured the terror suspect last night in Leipzig," the police said in a tweet.

The police had been looking for the suspect, Syrian refugee Jaber al-Bakr, after raiding a flat in the eastern city of Chemnitz on Saturday.

Several hundred grams of "highly volatile" explosives were found at the property, investigators said.
