In the search for the missing father of Magdeburg soccer professional Kai Brünker, the police have started a new operation. There was an action with over 100 officers on Thursday in a forest area in Brigachtal south of Villingen-Schwenningen (Schwarzwald-Baar district), the police said.

The 61-year-old, who has been missing for more than two months, was last seen on the evening of December 23 in the city center of Villingen in Baden. Since then he has disappeared without a trace. A larger search had already taken place at the end of December.

The missing person's son had asked the population via Instagram for information. Brünker comes from Villingen and has been playing for 1. FC Magdeburg since 2020.
