And oh yes, something tells me the guy wasn't a Christian or a Jew.
UPDATE 9:30 PM
Fox News adds:
Federal police said they ordered part of the airport's Terminal 2 closed to look for the man following the incident at 3:30 p.m.
An airport security instrument alerted officials to possible explosives as the man's laptop was being checked, police said. He then hastily left the scene carrying the computer into the terminal.
The alert "doesn't necessary have to mean that there were explosives inside," federal police spokesman Albert Poerschke told the German news agency DAPD.
Officials wanted to check the computer again, but the man left. "We believe that the man didn't realize there was more to come," Poerschke said.
Airport spokesman Florian Engert said a dozen aircraft were unable to depart.
