Berlin Pride Attack Leaves One Dead | Europe News

A chilling attack shattered Berlin’s annual Pride celebration when a vehicle plowed into a crowd, killing one and injuring sixteen—including three critically. Authorities, deploying over 2,200 officers, are hunting a suspect allegedly linked to Berlin’s Islamist scene, while the Tiergarten area remains sealed. Mayor Kai Wegner and Chancellor Friedrich Merz condemned the assault as an attack on freedom, vowing justice. The event, once vibrant with music at the Brandenburg Gate, was abruptly shut down as attendees were urged to leave. This tragedy echoes Germany’s history of public vehicle attacks, including the 2016 Christmas market massacre, as the nation braces for answers amid an ongoing citywide manhunt.
