A car drove into a crowd in central Munich on Thursday, injuring nearly 30 individuals in what is being treated as a suspected attack. Authorities have arrested a 24-year-old asylum seeker from Afghanistan. The incident occurred just days before a crucial election on February 23, centered on immigration issues. Among the injured, including children, at least one person is reported to have life-threatening injuries. The attack coincided with ongoing public sector strikes and was aimed at a demonstration organized by the Verdi union, prompting widespread shock and concern among officials and the public.
"I am deeply shocked," said Munich mayor Dieter Reiter regarding the incident involving a car driving into a crowd, injuring nearly 30 people, including children.
The car reportedly followed a peaceful demonstration organized by the Verdi trade union, weaving past police and ramming into protesters.
