The man suspected of carrying out the deadly attack at Berlin's Pride celebration was shot dead by police on Sunday, bringing a nationwide manhunt to an end and shifting attention to his criminal history and previous terror-related conviction.
The suspect, identified by German Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt as 21-year-old Abdul Ballout, was a German citizen of Lebanese origin who was born and raised in Berlin. Authorities said he lived with his mother and three sisters in the city's Schoeneberg district, only a short distance from where the attack took place.
