The attacker is known to have rented a car before driving it into the crowd at the fair. Officers also found luggage in the passenger seat of the vehicle. It is being tested for explosives. It is also known whether the detainee acted independently.

“The car drove about 400 meters through the fairgrounds before crashing into people. A vehicle, likely a BMW, is still at the scene,” Welt writes.
