The man accused of driving his truck into a crowded Christmas market in Germany, killing five people and injuring more than 200 others, is now facing murder charges after his first appearance before a judge. Meanwhile, investigators are learning more about the suspect’s possible motive. NBC’s Daniele Hamamdjian reports for Sunday TODAY.

When a Saudi Arabian national was accused of ramming a car into a German Christmas market, members of the frequently anti-Muslim European far right said it proved their point. The deadly incident in Magdeburg was another example of Islamist terrorism, they said — and a result of the mass immigration they so vehemently oppose. Except it wasn’t that simple. The suspect, Taleb al-Abdulmohsen, 50, was in fact scathingly critical of Islam and immigration, according to his past posts on X.

Al-Abdulmohsen entered Germany in 2006 — almost a decade before then-Chancellor Angela Merkel’s “open-door policy” that saw 1 million asylum-seekers enter the country and, critics say, foment much of the political disquiet experienced today.
