The suspect accused of killing a woman and injuring 29 people near Berlin Pride was known to domestic intelligence and had been released from detention only two months earlier. He had previously been convicted of preparing a serious act of extremist violence.
Authorities believe the 21-year-old drove a rented van into people in Tiergarten on Saturday night before attacking others with a bladed weapon. Police shot him dead the following evening after he allegedly ran towards officers while armed. Germany's interior minister said the evidence pointed towards an Islamist terrorist attack.
