  Dropped into Google translate, so it's not a good translation, but the first paragraph is as follows:

      When Glock 17 caliber nine millimeters, with
      which the student David S. on Friday evening
      in Munich nine people and shot himself, is a
      reactivated ("reaptierte") theater weapon.
      The learned the Süddeutsche Zeitung from
      investigators circles. The proof marks comes
      from 2014. Then the gun was not sharp, but it
      was made ready for use again in the episode.
      The weapon carries a certification mark from
      Slovakia. The gun had the perpetrator is
      purchasing on darknet.
  

  And the second paragraph:

      The darknet is a kind of secret Web, a
      parallel world to the power of Facebook,
      Amazon and the news sites that know most
      Internet users. The pages in the darknet
      can be called up only if you use the right
      software and know exactly where to look.
      Often criminals use the darknet, about to
      act there with weapons, drugs or child
      pornography.
