Germany: Car Ramps Through Christmas Market, Killing 11
A car deliberately plowed into a Magdeburg Christmas market on Friday evening, killing at least two—an adult and a toddler—and injuring over 60 others. The 50-year-old Saudi Arabian suspect, a doctor living in Germany since 2006, was apprehended at the scene. Authorities have declared the attack an isolated incident, but several other German cities cancelled their Christmas markets as a precaution. The attack deeply shocked Magdeburg and prompted widespread condolences from German officials and international leaders.
