Berlin police call off the city’s LGBTQ+ Pride march after a vehicle drives into the crowd during the event on Saturday. Multiple outlets, including international wire service reporting, say the incident occurs while the parade is underway and that emergency services respond on scene. Police report at least one person is killed and at least 15 others are injured. Several sources characterize the vehicle as a car or van, but the reports agree on the key details: a vehicle enters the parade crowd, casualties result, and authorities halt the event hours after it begins.
CBS News and other accounts say police search for possible suspects following the crash, indicating the incident is treated as an attack or at least investigated as such rather than a routine accident. RFI and the Washington Times similarly state that police cancel the parade due to injuries suffered by participants. Other outlets describe the parade as one of Europe’s largest and note the event is in Berlin’s central public area. The reporting consistently places the disruption late in the day and emphasizes the casualty figures and the police decision to end the gathering.
