Berlin Pride attacker Abdul Ballout, a German citizen with Lebanese roots, is dead after being shot by police during a nearly 24-hour manhunt.

Ballout, who reportedly attempted to join ISIS, was found in a Spandau garden at 6 PM, fled toward officers with a weapon, and was killed instantly. His mother became a German citizen three years before his birth. The motive behind the attack remains under investigation.
