GERMANY STABBINGS - 3 DEAD & 15 INJURED AS 'SOMALIAN SCIENTIST' ENRICHES WURZBURG WITH HUGE BLADE

AT LEAST three people were killed and 15 wounded in a knife rampage in Germany today, according to reports.
Shocking video shared online showed a man swinging a large blade as a group of bystanders tackled him in a town square before cops swooped and shot the suspect in the leg.
Police said they launched a "major operation" after a number of victims were in attacked apparently at random in Wurzburg, Bavaria. In the footage, the alleged attacker is seen barefoot and armed with a long knife.
Terrified onlookers scream and shout as he lunges at passersby with the blade.
A man shouts: “He has just stabbed a woman.”

A whole crowd of people gather grabbing sticks and chairs to throw at him in a bid to stop the rampage.
A man with a long stick hits the knifeman from around the corner, with him hitting back.
But after cowering around a corner, a mob of around 20 chase after him down a side street.
Moments after, a police car eventually swoops in where he is stopped with a shot to the leg, arrested and now in custody.
According to BILD, the attacker first asked a shop assistant for a knife in a department store before grabbing one and starting a killing spree.

He then ran into a bank and onto the street where witnesses say he stabbed people at random but mostly women.
At least three people died, all in a Woolworths store with five more seriously injured in critical condition.
Nine more, many of which bravely tried to stop the rampage, have less severe injuries.
Bavaria’s Interior Minister Joachim Herrmann said that the attacker was a Somali national who has lived in Wurzburg since 2015.
The Somali was known to the police according to Herrmann: “He is known to police and was forcibly committed to psychiatric treatment. “In the case of the seriously injured, it's not certain that they will all survive."
