(London Guardian) Three people have been seriously injured after a man drove a car into pedestrians in a square in the centre of Heidelberg.
The attacker fled, armed with a knife, before being surrounded by police outside an office block. After a stand-off, the man was shot once by an officer, according to video of the incident posted on social media, then taken to hospital.
Norbert Schaetzle, a police spokesman, told a local TV station that the man had used a rental car, according to Deutsche Welle. He said that no terrorist motive was suspected.
