Lorry terror attack in Germany

Quote:

An attack on motorists in the western town of Limburg is being investigated as terrorism, security sources have told German media. On Monday, a man hijacked a lorry and ploughed into eight vehicles waiting at a traffic light, injuring eight people. Seven were treated in hospital. A thirty-two year-old suspect has been arrested. Originally from Syria, he has been living in Germany since 2015, local reports say. Public broadcaster ZDF quoted sources as saying the incident was being treated by investigators as having a "terrorist background", although Interior Minister Horst Seehofer said on Tuesday he could not yet say how the incident was being classified.

Police searched a flat in Langen south of Frankfurt early on Tuesday and said it was linked to what had happened in Limburg, local reports said. The owner of the stolen lorry told the Frankfurter Neue Presse (FNP) newspaper that he had been dragged from his vehicle by the man, who had forced the door open. "What do you want from me?" the driver said he asked the man. "He didn't say a word. I asked him a again and then he dragged me out of the lorry." Another witness, Bettina Yeisley, described talking to the hijacker afterwards without realising he had driven the lorry.

"I spoke to him. He was bleeding from his nose, his hands were bloody and his trousers torn. He said 'my whole body hurts.' I asked his name and he told me his name was Mohammed," she told the newspaper. Other German reports gave his name as Omar. Marius Hahn, the Mayor of Limburg north-west of Frankfurt, said his thoughts were with the injured and their families.

Thank goodness he didn't do too much damage!

Yes Terrorism in Germany
Good no deaths

Sigh, does anyone here still remember a time when this stuff hardly ever happened in Europe? Yeah, makes you wonder what happened to change that.

Working under your less-than-subtle assumption that this is ISIS-related, this would be the first ISIS-related attack in Europe this year, so your "who remembers a time when we didn't have These People™ attacking us everyday?????" rhetoric is misdirected in this instance

nothing bad ever happens in britain, at least one thing what brexit is good for

good there were no deaths in this attack anyway
