Bad Oeynhausen (dpa) - Violent gusts of wind blew over the tents of a corona drive-in test center in Bad Oeynhausen on Tuesday morning.
The police said they were literally torn from their anchors.
The fire brigade secured the tents with belts, the police blocked the adjacent streets for safety reasons.
According to the information, the passing storm caused operations in the entire Minden-Lübbecke district in northeast North Rhine-Westphalia.
A tree fell on a parked car in Minden.
The police also moved out because of objects being swirled around - including a mobile toilet and a trampoline.
Several rapid test centers operated by the Mühlenkreiskliniken in Minden, Lübbecke, Herford and Löhne were temporarily closed from midday as a precautionary measure because of the feared squalls, as stated in a message from the clinics.
