One person has been arrested in Bavarian town of Aschaffenburg over a stabbing attack that left two dead.

Two people, including a two-year-old boy, were killed and two others were injured in a stabbing attack in Bavaria on Wednesday, German authorities said.

The second victim who was killed was a 41-year-old man, and the suspect was a 28-year-old citizen of Afghanistan who was apprehended in the knife attack, which occurred in a park in the city centre of the southern German town of Aschaffenburg.

Train services in the town were temporarily interrupted as the suspect tried to flee from police along the tracks, German news agency dpa reported. However, the suspect was quickly detained after the incident, police wrote on the social media platform X.

Authorities announced that the public was no longer in danger after the attack and asked witnesses to come forward as well as send photos and videos of the incident as evidence.

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz called the stabbing "an unbelievable act of terror,?B>".

"I am tired of seeing such acts of violence here every few weeks. By perpetrators who actually came to us to find protection here," he said in a statement on Wednesday.

"Misunderstood tolerance is completely inappropriate. The authorities must work as hard as possible to find out why the attacker was still in Germany," Scholz emphasised.

"The findings must be followed immediately - talking is not enough."

The governor of Bavaria condemned the attack and called it “a terrible day for all of Bavaria.”

“We mourn the victims of a cowardly and despicable act. We mourn the loss of a small, innocent child who was fatally injured,” Markus Söder wrote on X. “We mourn the loss of a helper who paid for his civil courage with his own life.”

“The circumstances of this inconceivable act must be fully clarified,” he added. “But now is the time to pause for thought. It simply hurts. We pray for the victims and their families. We hope that all those injured recover quickly and fully.”

Germany is on high-security alert after a car-ramming attack in the city of Magdeburg left six people dead and dozens injured.

The suspect of the attack, a Saudi-born doctor who has lived in Germany since 2006, has been detained.

Authorities said that his motivation for the attack was unclear. However, the Magdeburg attack will not be investigated as an act of terrorism.

article "28-year-old citizen of Afghanistan who was apprehended in the knife attack."

I would expect no less. This is a "dog bites man" story, not a "man bites dog" story.

I don’t understand...don’t we have enough such stories right here in the US without importing stories from foreign countries? WHY is this of interest here?

Even more infuriating will be the government of Bavaria and the majority of the people will ask themselves “what did we do to fail this poor Afghanistan rapefugee that caused him to murder these people.”

333 3rd street in San Francisco. It was in the 80’s. 2 gays engaged in a knife fight on a 6th floor balcony. Both fell over the side and ended up dead. Both had this new disease-aids. Both accused the other of giving it to them.

AND now... there is a whole faggotry subculture of “bug chasing” where the degenerates purposely catch aids to get on the government retirement plan of endless tax dollars for aids infected homos.

Sorry not sorry for calling them what they are and what they do.

Moslems are such cowards. They like to pick on little kids, women and the elderly. Their “religion” needs to be obliterated from the face of the earth.
