According to state leader Reiner Haselhoff, the suspect is a 50-year-old Saudi man who works as a doctor in the Saxony-Anhalt district, who has lived in Germany since 2006. It’s been reported that a suspected explosive device was also found in the car, but this has not yet been confirmed by official sources.
