BERLIN—German police raided homes in four states on Wednesday in connection with three people suspected of links to the Islamic State group, authorities said.

 

Apartments and other locations were searched in Berlin, Bavaria, Saxony and Saxony-Anhalt on Wednesday morning, federal prosecutors' spokeswoman Frauke Koehler said in a statement.

 

Two suspects are accused of membership in a terrorist organization on allegations they belong to ISIS, while the third is suspected of supporting a terrorist organization. Two are also accused of weapons violations.

 

The raids were carried out to collect evidence in the ongoing investigation and no arrests were made.
