    At least one killed when car drives into a crowd in Germany's Mannheim

    At least one person has been killed and others injured when a car rammed into a crowd in the western German city of Mannheim, police say as they ask the public to stay away from the downtown area.

    Police spokesperson Stefan Wilhelm said a driver on Monday drove into a group of people in Paradeplatz, a square in a pedestrianised area of Mannheim.

    He said “several” people were injured but police could not yet specify how many were hurt or how badly they were hurt.

    “We can confirm that one perpetrator was arrested,” he said. “We can’t yet give information on whether there were further perpetrators.”

    Paradeplatz, a major square in the downtown area, lies at the end of a pedestrianised street in Mannheim, which has a population of 326,000 and is 85km (52 miles) south of Frankfurt.

    Mannheim University Hospital said it has prepared for a possible mass casualty incident, the German news agency dpa reported. The hospital has implemented its disaster and emergency plan to prepare for the care of the injured.

    Local authorities have also pushed an alert on the Katwarn app telling people in Mannheim to avoid the city’s downtown area due to a big police deployment. Katwarn is used by officials to communicate information about major emergencies such as thunderstorms, attacks or fires.

    Security has been a key concern in Germany following a string of violent attacks in recent weeks, including deadly car rammings in Magdeburg in December and in Munich last month, as well as a stabbing in Mannheim in May 2024.

    Police are on high alert for this year’s carnival parades after social media accounts connected to the Islamic State (IS) group called for attacks on the events in Cologne and Nuremberg.
    What is it with these fucking raghead scum. Allowed to remain in the country, supported generously by the state but they just cant stop killing their hosts.

    That may be true. However frequently such announcement means some Muslim with german citizenship. Mentioning the ethnicity of the perpetrator is regarded ethnic hatred and the media avoid it at all cost.

    Two people have died and 11 others have been injured after a car was deliberately rammed into a crowd in the western German city of Mannheim, before the driver shot himself.

    Among those hurt, five people are in a serious condition after a black vehicle hit pedestrians on Monday, according to German police and prosecutors.

    At a news conference, reporters were told the driver intentionally rammed his car into people and is being investigated for murder and attempted murder.

    They said the man shot himself in the mouth when he was arrested and is in a stable condition in hospital.

    Investigators are examining the possibility he may have psychological issues.

    When one is wrong it’s usually better just to acknowledge that and leave rather than trying to argue the point.

    That's the point. I was not wrong. I give you one example. Here in Berlin we had in recent years many incidents in public pools. Gangs of 100 young men with Arab origin, most of them born and raised in Germany, with german citizenship run amuck there harassing and threatening many visiotors. The way these incidents were reported by the media did not let on who the perpetrators were. I argued with people outside Berlin and they did not believe me. Arguing that the media report, it was done by german youths.

    It is prudent, until proven wrong, to assume this kind of incident is caused by Muslim extremists. Media reporting is deliberately misleading.

    ^ Exactly.

    Willy, being married to a muslim woman, may be muslim himself and will naturally seek to defend the faith.

    We are all tribal.

    Nonsense.

    It's prudent to establish the truth.

    Riots were started in Southport UK after murders there when it was wrongly claimed that the perp was a Muslim illegal.

    Neither assertion was accurate.

    You mean this fellow.

    Surely an honourary islamist.

    He was jailed in January for a minimum of 52 years after admitting the three murders, the attempted murders of the other children and the adults, production of ricin, possession of an al-Qaeda training manual and possession of a knife.

    Don't completely disagree. But establishing the truth his hard if ALL of the media make deliberately wrong or misleading reporting. Which they consistently do.

    What, and just assuming a murderer is muslim makes establishing the truth easier?

    It isn't deliberately wrong reporting. It is responsible for a journalist to fact check.

    They don't fact check. They deliberately omit important facts for reasons of "political correctness".

    Assuming it is moslems is the most likely explanation.

    It's not the media's job to state 'the most likely explanation' as fact.

    The media are seeing their job in being politically correct. Not reporting facts. So they usually don't.

    If you could put up some quotes that you see as being 'politically correct' that would be much appreciated.

    This is exactly fact, as the media has been lying its ass off about gaza for years, reporting all its "news" by directly quoting terrorists. Can you imagine if during the US war in Iraq the media considered ISIS as a credible source? They do that daily in regard to HAMAS.

    There is no doubt that several EU countries are actively suppressing islamic hate crimes.

    He is spot on.
