In the center of the German town Bottrop last night a car ran over a group of people. Four people were injured, one seriously.

The police suspect that the German driver especially targeted foreigners. According to the police, a number of victims are from Syria and Afghanistan.

After the collision at Berliner Platz, a square in the center of the city, the 50-year-old motorist fled. Eventually the police could arrest him in Essen, more than 10 kilometers away. There too he is said to have tried to run over people at a bus stop.

The police assume that the man acted premeditatedly. According to the police, the 50-year-old driver screamed xenophobic language during his arrest.
