Haseloff confirmed that the driver was arrested immediately after the incident."We have apprehended the perpetrator, he is a doctor from Saudi Arabia who works here in Saxony-Anhalt, and has been in Germany since 2006," he told reporters. He wrote in June a post about German police using"dirty tactics" against him and other critics of Islam to"destroy their anti-Islam activism."
