1 killed, at least 15 hurt after vehicle hits Berlin Pride crowd
What's new: Police launched a manhunt after the white vehicle stopped only after crashing into a tree near Tiergarten.
A vehicle struck a crowd near Berlin's Christopher Street Day celebrations on Saturday night, killing one person and injuring at least 15 others, with several in life-threatening condition. Berlin police said the white vehicle drove into people in the Tiergarten area near the Brandenburg Gate shortly before 10 p.m. and came to a stop after hitting a tree. Authorities said the vehicle was empty when officers reached it and launched an intensive search for the suspected driver or drivers. The incident prompted police to call off the rest of the night's festivities at one of Europe's largest LGBTQ events, which had drawn hundreds of thousands of people to the German capital.
