Syrian Man Confesses To Stabbing 3 Dead At German Festival

Knife found at the scene after a man, who was later shot dead by police, killed four members of his extended family in Queens

A 26-year-old Syrian man has turned himself in and confessed to stabbing to death three people and wounding eight others at a festival in Solingen, Germany. The suspect will appear before a judge in Karlsruhe on Sunday as the investigation looks into any potential connection to a terrorist organization.

ISIS claimed responsibility for the attack, but provided no evidence to support their claim. The suspect was detained at a refugee shelter after a major manhunt, which saw authorities deploy special forces and establish extensive search measures in North Rhine Westphalia.
