Angry STOP Migrants: Germany-ANOTHER Terrorist IMMIGRANT Attack -31 Injured

Syrian Terrorist IMMIGRANT Sets Fire, Attacks with Machete; Leaving 31 Injured in Germany

Essen Germany Attack: Terror as machete-wielding man sets fire to homes and injures 31, including children


MailOnline 1 OCT 2024








The suspect was arrested


Frightened locals had to lower children down from the roofs of burning buildings after an armed attacker set fire to homes.




A Syrian man with a machete caused terror across the city of Essen in Germany on Saturday and left 30 people injured including eight children. He caused a blaze in two blocks of flats and drove a van through two stores.

Harrowing photos showed people trying to reach trapped residents with ladders to help them escape. However, the equipment was unable to stretch far enough to access the higher floors, so people had to work together to retrieve children from the roofs.

In one image, a young girl was seen attempting to reach a ladder as smoke ascended in the air. Another man was spotted standing on a window ledge to help a child who was trying to escape.

Emergency services were alerted to two fires in residential buildings shortly after 5pm, police said. Two of those who were injured were left in a life-threatening condition after inhaling smoke.

Shortly after the fires broke out, a van drove into two shops in the city, causing damage to property but no injuries. The suspect then allegedly threatened people with weapons, but several men managed to push him back with shovels and poles and hold him until police arrived.

Police said the suspect was a 41-year-old Essen resident with Syrian citizenship. They said the mans motive appeared to be that his wife had left him, and he targeted houses and shops where people who supported her lived, according to local media.

The fire service said that, when it arrived at the scene of the first blaze, smoke was billowing from the entrance of the building and people were calling for help from windows.

The suspect has not commented so far on what happened on Saturday, but was previously known to authorities for threats and damage to property, police said. Prosecutors were seeking to have him kept in custody on suspicion of arson and attempted murder.

The mans lawyer Volker Schr?der said there was no political motive behind the incident and said it was a "purely tragic family story. A fight against his wife for the children - and probably a mental disorder."
