German police have fatally shot the 21-year-old man suspected in a deadly attack in Berlin, bringing a major manhunt to an end. According to the initial reports, the suspect was killed during a standoff on Sunday in a suburb of the German capital.
The attack in Berlin left one person dead and 29 others injured, prompting an urgent search for the person believed to be responsible. Authorities had been pursuing the suspect after the violence shook the city and raised immediate security concerns.
Law enforcement officers reportedly confronted the suspect outside central Berlin, where the situation ended with police gunfire. The brief details released so far indicate that the shooting concluded the search, though fuller information about the sequence of events has not yet been made public.
The case is likely to remain under close scrutiny as investigators work to clarify how the attack unfolded and what led to the final confrontation. For now, the immediate police operation has ended, but the Berlin incident continues to draw attention because of its deadly toll and the number of people hurt.
