Police in Germany are still searching for a motive as they investigate a man who attacked several people at a private European Championship party in a small town.
The incident happened on Friday night in Wolmirstedt, in the central state of Saxony-Anhalt.
Police said a 27-year-old man broke into a single-family home and attacked several people who had gathered on the patio to watch the Euro 2024 opening game between Germany and Scotland.
He stabbed at several people with a "knife-like object," police said.
The assailant, originally from Afghanistan, seriously injured a 50-year-old woman and a 75-year-old man. A 56-year-old man was slightly injured.
After the police arrived, the perpetrator is said to have attacked the officers. The police responded with gunfire and the man later died at hospital.
Before the attack at the football party, police said the assailant killed a 23-year-old man in an apartment block not far away. Police did not give further details about the victim.
It is important to "shed further light" on the man's motive, said public prosecutor Frank Baumgarten on Sunday. He said there would be extensive questioning of witnesses and people who knew the assailant.
As things stand, Baumgarten said he saw no evidence that the shots fired by two officers at the attacker were unlawful.
