Thanks for the local insight. I always see these things and think “When you hear hoof beats in Arizona, you think horses, not zebras.”
Are the accounts wrong, did this guy not say those things about infidels, Alluah Akbar, etc?
What the German cops say is that a couple of weeks ago....they got a call in Giessen (a little north of Frankfurt). This guy was in some kind of heated argument with either relatives or neighbors. They don’t say much except that they (the cops) got into the middle of this....settled it....and just wrote a short report mentioning the guy.
So, now he shows up south of Munich (long ways from Giessen....maybe a five-hour train ride)....no shoes...just shirt and pants...was sitting somewhere at the train station from like 2AM on, and got into some confrontation stage early this morning....pulling a knife out and talking Akbar. When they took him down (after stabbing around)....he was incoherent and babbling along (not much was understandable but note, he’s not an immigrant or refugee....he’s a 100-percent German guy). What they also say is that he had some kind of narcotic on him (not saying it was meth or whatever). It might be some meds and he might be some sedated nutcase on a regular prescription.
He utters Allah akbar but I think he was wasted enough on something that he was just uttering anything that came to his mind.
From my local area (Hessen), they say the guy had been under physiological treatment several weeks ago, which had included drug rehab treatment of some type.
As much as everyone wants to confirm the guy as an Arab and this was a terror action....it’s a wasted cause. He’s a nutcase waiting for some opportunity to just yell Akbar and cut some people. A couple of weeks ago....the cops could have branded the guy a threat and triggered the Hessen court to put him in some nut-house for the rest of his life. Instead, they just let him walk out and kill some Bavarian guy.
