Reports: At least 11 dead as car plowed into Christmas market in Germany's Magdeburg | DW News
A car was driven into a crowd of people at a Christmas market in the central German city of Magdeburg on Friday night.bAt least two people have been killed, according to Saxony-Anhalt's state premier, Reiner Haseloff. City spokesperson Michael Reif said there were "numerous injured," with media reports suggesting that number to be around 70. Police have taken the driver into custody, according to local government sources cited by Germany's dpa news agency. Authorities say the individual, a Saudi national, is not known to have Islamist ties. Authorities have closed the Christmas market and emergency services are at the scene. A spokesperson for Magdeburg University Hospital told dpa that the first 10-20 victims have already arrived at the facility, adding, "We are currently gearing up [for more]. Intensive care beds are ready." No information about the driver of the car been released and despite wild public speculation on social media sites authorities in Magdeburg have avoided any statement on a possible motive. Friday's incident did, nevertheless, trigger memories of a 2016 attack on a Berlin Christmas market. That crime, perpetrated by an Islamist in a stolen truck, killed 13 and injured more than 70.
