A major police operation is currently taking place in the city center of Mannheim. The authorities ask the population to avoid the area far.
As the police announced on Monday via Online Service X (formerly Twitter), the city center must be avoided “Groot”. A police spokesperson was initially unable to provide further information about the background of the mission. It is unclear whether it is an accident or an attack.
Probably different injuries
According to a report from “Mannheim24”, according to the first findings, it is a black SUV that drove from Paradeplatz to the water tower to a crowd at high speed. There must be several seriously injured people. Countless emergency services are on site.
A reporter from the DPA press office reported rubble on site. Moreover, at least one person was seen under a sail. So far it has been unclear whether this person has died or has been seriously injured.
The “Rheinpfalz” reports that the car – apparently a black SUV – was raced from the water tower to Paradeplatz. The Intensive Care unit of the University Clinic proclaimed disaster alarm. According to “Bild” information, it is said that the driver of the car has been arrested.
The police have not yet provided official information about the background of the incident.
