At least 3 dead and 9 wounded.

The BBC have just claimed that the German police has stated they have no indication that the suspect is still dangerous. What the actual fuck.

Weird. Assuming he's not arrested, is that a euphemism for dead?

Dead, arrested or they've cut the suspect's arms and legs off.

A 15-year-old has been arrested "in connection with the attack"
Asked about reports that the attacker targeted victims' throats, police say yes, attacks were "very targeted" at people's throats and necks.

They have found "multiple knives" and are attempting to determine whether one of them was used in the attack.

They cannot currently confirm whether they do have the weapon that was used.

Indeed however eye witnesses described the man as having a short beard? No doubt if he had been shot we would be turning ourselves inside out about shooting a child :crazy:

If he'd been shot having killed someone and then was going after another person or even attacking someone with a knife as his first action, then no, I doubt many people would be turning themselves inside out.

IN any case, the 15 year old isn't the main suspect. He was arrested because police believe he knew about the attack before it happened, and so may know who the perpetrator is.

Doh! I knew I shouldn't have posted without reading any of the facts in this - that'll larn me, I hope.

Reportedly eye witness descriptions of the attacker were so different as to be of little use and why no descriptions have been issued to help with the manhunt. The Islamic State group have now claimed responsibility though...

No-one has a description of the attacker? What kind of festival was it? Acid?
