Berlin police arrest suspect in stabbing at Holocaust memorial

German police say they arrested a suspect in the stabbing at Berlin’s Holocaust memorial that seriously injured a man.

Berlin’s police department gives no details on the identity of the suspect or his possible motive.

“Our forces have detained a suspect in the vicinity of the crime scene,” city police post on X. “Investigations continue.”

Video of the scene showed emergency vehicles and heavily armored police lined along one side of the memorial site, a vast field of gray concrete pillars where the attack took place. The memorial is across the street from the US Embassy.

The victim “was so seriously injured that he had to be taken by the fire brigade to the hospital for emergency treatment,” police spokesperson Florian Nath says.
