DW News reported that “several people” were injured in the attack, which
includes far-right activist Michael Stürzenberger. A police officer was also
injured.
The attacker stabbed Stürzenberger when he was taking part in a rally of
Citizens’ Movement Pax Europa (BPE) party, according to Euronews.
In a video of the attack shared on social media, a man could be seen running
around with a knife and attacking people.
The Euronews described Stürzenberger as an anti-Islam commentator. It further
said that while the BPE party calls itself neutral, a branch of the party and
Stürzenberger have been previously linked to Pegida, a xenophobic
extreme-right group, which counts several neo-Nazis amongst its followers.
The authorities have not yet commented about the motive of the attack. The
attacker’s identity has also not been disclosed.
