June 11, 2022 at 02:42 Four injured in knife attack at German university Four people were injured when a man attacked a random passer-by at a university in Germany on Friday. The 34-year-old man attacked a number of people at Hamm-Lippstadt University near Dortmund before students overpowered him and he was apprehended by police. A spokesman for the prosecution says there are many indications that the perpetrator is mentally ill. There is no sign of any political motive for the attack. The wounded were three men and one woman. The condition of the woman is life-threatening, according to the prosecution. On the same day, a woman and a seven-year-old girl were seriously injured in a knife attack at a school in Esslingen in southern Germany. The suspected perpetrator, a 24-year-old Dutchman, was arrested shortly after in Stuttgart. The motive is not clear in this case either, and it has not been determined whether there was a connection between the man and the two who were injured. (NTB)
