A Saudi doctor drove a car into a Christmas market in Magdeburg, Germany, killing 2 people and injuring over 60. The attack happened on Friday evening as the market was crowded with visitors. Police arrested the 50-year-old man, who has lived in Germany since 2006. The car ploughed through 400 metres of the market, leaving behind a trail of injuries and destruction. Officials believe he acted alone and ruled out immediate further danger. Investigations are ongoing. German leaders and international figures expressed shock and sympathy for the victims. Authorities are examining whether an explosive device was in the car.
