Dead gardener linked to fatal booby traps
``German police are searching for anyone who knew a landscape gardener who may have targeted them by laying booby traps before he died.

Bernhard Graumann, 59, was found dead on Friday. Police believe he may be behind an explosive trap that killed a 64-year-old doctor on the same day.

Two other people with connections to Graumann were injured by an exploding piece of firewood in their home.

Those who think Graumann held a grudge against them should contact the police.

Bernhard Graumann, from the small town of Mehlingen in western Germany, died on the night of 1 March at his home. Police are awaiting an autopsy report.

Earlier that day, a 64-year-old doctor in the nearby town of Enkenbach-Alsenborn was killed in a deliberate explosion.

German police say the unnamed doctor was killed by a booby trap planted at the front door of the doctor's practice, which was apparently triggered when the victim picked a disguised device from the ground.

Less than 10km (6 miles) away in Otterberg, there was another explosion on Sunday morning.

``Police warn anyone who had conflicts with man to be wary``

Graumann is believed to have planted a bomb outside the medical practice of a 64-year-old doctor in the nearby town of
Enkenbach-Alsenborn that exploded Friday morning, killing the physician. Then on Sunday, a 37-year-old woman and her four-year-old daughter were injured by glass splinters when the woman put a log that had been rigged with explosives into her stove and it blew the door out.

Their injuries were not thought to be life-threatening, but the child is still in the hospital receiving treatment, Erfort said.

Graumann, 59, had been in conflict with both the doctor and with the family, and is thought to have planted the explosives before he died. `


In a search of Graumann's home, investigators found black powder and other items that were "in violation of weapons and explosives laws," police said.

"It cannot be ruled out that the deceased made other preparations that could endanger further people," police said.``
