The teen was seized near Potsdam in the state of Brandenburg by elite SEK armed police.
Brandenburg’s interior minister Karl-Heinz Schröter confirmed the arrest which came after authorities intercepted a WhatsApp chat in which the youngster bade farewell to his mother.
Officials said the arrest was the result of coordinated intelligence from several German states.
The youth came to Germany in 2015 and registered as asylum seeker.
He lived in a home for unaccompanied minor refugees.
His asylum home was raided today.
Details of his planned outrage were not revealed by police but media reports said that his scheme was “advanced.”
Germany’s domestic intelligence service says ISIS still represents a grave threat to the country.
