“A car plowed into a crowd at a German Christmas market on Friday, injuring 60 to 80 people and killing one in a suspected terrorist attack. The car crashed into barriers protecting the market in Magdeburg, witnesses said And went straight among the buyers.
Video, reportedly taken by a nearby camera, shows a car mowing down dozens of pedestrians as it drove through a narrow lane lined with stalls on both sides. Germany’s DPA news agency reported that the driver had been arrested and police had closed down the market as they searched for explosives.
Chancellor Olaf Scholz said that reports from Magdeburg showed that “something terrible is about to happen”. “My thoughts are with the victims and their loved ones,” he said. The attack started at 7.04 pm local time And according to reports, the car involved was a dark colored BMW. Magdeburg, west of Berlin, is the provincial capital of Saxony-Anholt and home to 240,000 people.”
