A citywide manhunt is underway in Berlin after a van plowed into a crowd near the city’s Christopher Street Day Pride celebration, killing one person and injuring at least 16 others. Police say three victims were left with life-threatening injuries after the vehicle struck people near the celebration area before crashing. Authorities are searching for a 21-year-old suspect who fled the scene and may be armed and dangerous. Investigators are working to determine whether anyone else was involved as Berlin’s LGBTQ+ community mourns the violence and city leaders condemn the attack as a blow against freedom, tolerance, and diversity.
