A number of people are reported to have been killed in a knife attack in the western German city of Solingen, local media say. Bild website says a man randomly stabbed passers-by during a festival in the city centre on Friday evening. Several people were also injured.

The attacker is believed to have fled the scene, and police have launched a manhunt. Police helicopters were seen hovering above the city.

The attack happened during the festival marking 650 years of Solingen. The city authorities asked people to leave the area and police are imposing security cordons. Emergency crews at the scene are now treating the injured, media reports say.

“I expect the German police to soon announce these two things:

1. The attack was not terror-related.
2. The suspect was a troubled lone wolf.”

The police have already announced these two things about the next attack.

I visited Germany in 1986. I’m glad I went. I got to see it before it went full islam. That being said, the family I stayed with had a Turkish housekeeper. And as far as I know, the son married a Turk in the 1990s or early 2000s.

City has been around for 650 years and has seen it all but these Merkel people are intent to not assimilate and destroy German civilization.

The Germans still had their balls in those days. That’s not the case anymore sadly.

I heard this story on my local radio news after getting home from shopping. So I turn on the TV news and all I can find are stories about Harris getting the nomination, something that’s news to no one. I guess the MSM forgot the new part of news.

Welp Germany, only one thing to do: import more of them in the hopes that they’ll kill each other instead of you.
