Police in southern Germany say they've detained a man they suspect of trying to extort millions of dollars from supermarkets by concealing poisoned food products on their shelves. He was arrested after tip-offs from the public following an appeal for information. Officers say they've discovered material they intend to use as evidence at his flat. The BBC's Tim Allman reports.
