Police said an 83-year-old man with dementia froze to death in Koelleda in eastern Germany. Officers found his body in the snow on the side of a road near the nursing home where he was living and think he might have gotten lost.
In Frankfurt, more than 80 flights had to be cancelled today because of the weather.
