Authorities have since detained the driver and assured the public that there is no ongoing threat. However, with Germany on high alert ahead of federal elections next week and recent violent incidents raising tensions, this event has intensified security concerns.
The incident reportedly affected demonstrators participating in a protest linked to a strike organized by the Verdi union. As of now, Verdi officials have stated they have no further information on the matter.
With world leaders set to arrive for the Munich Security Conference, security measures were already heightened, but this incident has reinforced the urgency of strict protective measures. While details about the suspect's motives remain unclear, the timing and location have raised suspicions of a potential targeted attack.
As the investigation unfolds, authorities are urging residents to remain vigilant. The situation is still developing, and updates are expected as officials piece together the events leading to this disturbing incident.
