Police investigating the Germanwings crash said tonight they had made a 'significant discovery' at the home of pilot Andreas Lubitz, who deliberately ploughed the Airbus A320 into the French Alps.
Officers refused to reveal details of the potential breakthrough but said it was not a suicide note.
Speaking outside the flat on the outskirts of Dusseldorf, police said they had 'found something' that would now be taken for tests, adding it may be a 'clue' as to what happened to the doomed jet.
German detectives were also pictured carrying evidence from a £400,000 home in Montabaur, a town 40 miles from Bonn, that Lubitz is believed to have shared with his parents.
The 28-year-old is understood to have split his time between the two addresses.
The forensic find comes hours after it emerged that Lubitz was forced to postpone his pilot training in 2008 because of mental health problems, with a friend saying he was 'in depression'.
The revelation will form a central part of the investigation and raises serious questions about why he was allowed to continue his training and whether enough was done to prevent the disaster.
Airline bosses confirmed Lubitz had taken several months off work and had to retrain to join the firm, but insisted he was '100 per cent fit to fly' after passing all medical tests.

I want to know why they though to take his computer “into custody” for inspection

Yeah but his depression was in 2008, doesn’t explain why he would do this now..7 years later unless he’s suffered from depression for seven years and never showed it to anyone..Im still getting ISIS wannabe
There are images of them loading a desktop style computer out.
Computers are always one of the first things they go for nowadays.

I agree, more to come.
TheLarge Blue Plastic Bags have me a bit befuddled as I cant imagine what might have been in them other than clothes.. garbage.. or marijuana
Hard drive drawers can fix that.
Now we find out what really happened.
Im hoping that it doesnt take as long as getting autopsy reports or it could be weeks before we know anything more.
Yup. Muslim Convert. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3272623/posts
It’s probably the image I saw.
Cells and computers make great evidence. Tops on the list. Then generally lead to lots of clues/evidence and goodies. They draw profiles on people from their computers, find out what they’re all about.
There will be no autopsies here.
Sorry, I misread your post.
Sounds like Brain Williams!
