"...police confiscated a crossbow, a BB gun and various documents among other items, they added."

Am I a joke to you?

This is the best summary I could come up with:

BERLIN, Oct 10 (Reuters) - German police conducted raids and arrested members of a far-right group that had sought to violently overthrow Chancellor Olaf Scholz's government and kidnap the health minister, prosecutors said on Tuesday.

The group, formed in mid-January 2022, had set itself the goal "of triggering civil war-like conditions in Germany by means of violence" in the hope of overthrowing the government and parliamentary democracy, according to prosecutors.

The group also had planned targeted explosive attacks with the aim of bringing about a nationwide power blackout lasting several weeks in order to cut off the population from broadcast and press coverage, according to prosecutors.

Five suspected members arrested last year have been on trial since May on high treason charges brought by prosecutors.

Among those arrested on Tuesday was a 61-year-old man in the central German state of Hesse, who offered his garage as a storage space for weapons and agreed to take part in the kidnapping, prosecutors said.

As part of the raid in Hesse, police confiscated a crossbow, a BB gun and various documents among other items, they added.
