Munich attack
Two people were injured in a knife attack in Munich, on Saturday.
A 30-year-old woman attacked members of the public with a blade at the Theresienwiese, the famous location of Oktoberfest.
She injured two people, a 56-year-old man and a 25-year-old woman, before being shot by police.
The two victims were treated for minor injuries as outpatients while the attacker was taken to hospital where she died of her injuries.
The attacker's motive was unclear and is now the subject of an investigation, a police spokesperson said.
She lived in the immediate vicinity of the crime scene and had no previous history of violent crime.
Police said it was unlikely that the woman was related to the two victims.
