BERLIN: A 21-year-old Syrian refugee killed a woman with a machete and injured two other people on Sunday before being arrested in the southern German city of Reutlingen, a police spokesperson said.

The asylum-seeking Syrian man had been involved in previous incidents causing injuries to other people, he said.

The spokesperson had no immediate information on when the man arrived in Germany, or when the previous incidents took place.

The assailant was apparently acting alone, the police official said. "There is no danger to anyone else at this time," he told Reuters.

Iqbal Hadi Zaidi | 7 years ago | Reply Isn't it shameful that none condemned the attack and that too from a person who has been sheltered in an alien country since his own country is on war? Syrian instead of saying thank you to Germany, attacked a woman and killed. Shame, utter shame on you. Iqbal Hadi Zaidi

Mandril | 7 years ago | Reply @Jk We believe in education, art, poetry, literature, and science. Everything that is beautiful in this world you hate. We defeat you with our superior culture. Muslims worship death. Muslims destroy; we create. You blow-up statues thousands of years old. You destroy works of civilization. We will never stoop to your barbaric level. To resort to violence would be admit defeat and that we have become like muslims.

Jk | 7 years ago | Reply @raj: This mess is created by bush and blair. They invaded country on wrong footings, they damaged infrastructure, killed hundred of thousand people and collapsed their system, now result is this.. Iraq Is just 30 million people population country while pakistan is 200 million+. It's nuclear power, with definate capacity of retailiation. Don't under estimate and produce much hate in already hateful world.. People with thinking like you are cause for so much hate in this world

Raj - USA | 7 years ago | Reply Bush and Blair made huge mistake. They should have finished off Pakistan in 2001/2002. Had they done so, Afghanistan would have been peaceful, Taliban and Al Quaida would have been finished and ISIS would not have been born. We would not be reading Tribune.com.pk also as "pk" extension would not have come into existence. I hope Trump takes the correct decision next year.

Iqbal | 7 years ago | Reply Once again, Muslims in the news for the wrong reasons. One of the reasons why west will never allow Kashmir to be part of Pakistan. It will just mean more terrorism.

Rahul | 7 years ago | Reply Religion of peace indeed.

BCCI | 7 years ago | Reply Peaceful people at work..we guided by their 'Procedure manual'
