Authorities investigate Saudi doctor as suspect in Germany Christmas market attack

Magdeburg Christmas market, on Dec 21, 2024.

The suspect, a 50-year-old psychiatrist who has lived in Germany for almost two decades, was arrested at the scene following the three-minute attack in the central city that shocked the country. Police did not name the suspect, identified by German media only as Taleb A. "I don't know about you, but I associate the Christmas market with mulled wine and bratwurst, and yesterday people died in this area. Others are fighting for their lives," Krug said."What a terrible act it is to injure and kill so many people with such brutality," Chancellor Olaf Scholz said during a visit to the city, where he laid a white rose at a church.

A German security source said Saudi authorities had sent several tips in 2023 and 2024 and that these had been passed on to the relevant security authorities. Tears ran down her face as she described the scene. "Children screaming, crying for mama. You can't forget that," she said.
