At least four children have been taken hostage in Germany. They were threatened with a knife, pulled out of a bus and now they are being held in a house nearby.

The children are all in ages 10-11. The police is not sure about the exact number yet. The number of children taken into hostage might be anywhere between four and seven. Allegedly the guy took about 10 children with him from the bus, but let some of them go on the street.

The kidnapper is probably about 40 years old male. Police is trying to get in contact with the man.
