More than 200 people in total were injured, many seriously, when a Saudi doctor intentionally drove a black BMW into the market.

The death toll in the attack on a busy Christmas market in the German city of Magdeburg has risen to five.

He was arrested on Friday evening at the site of the attack as medical officials tended to the injured, and was taken into custody for questioning. He also accused German authorities of failing to do enough to combat what he said was the “Islamism of Europe”. Some described him as an activist who helped Saudi women flee their homeland. He has also voiced support for the far-right and anti-immigrant Alternative for Germany party.

The violence shocked the country and the city, bringing its mayor to the verge of tears and marring a festive event that is part of a centuries-old German tradition. “My thoughts are with the victims and their relatives,” Mr Scholz wrote on X. “We stand beside them and beside the people of Magdeburg.”Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

A nearby police officer pointing a handgun at the man shouted at him as he lay prone, his head arched up slightly. Other officers soon arrived and took the man into custody.
