Police in Berlin are conducting a manhunt for a suspect referred to as “Abdul B” after an attack at Pride events involving a vehicle. Multiple outlets report that authorities treat the incident as terrorism and are investigating it as an Islamist-motivated attack. News coverage also states that the suspect is 21 years old and has prior connections or reported involvement with Islamist circles, and that he has been known to police.
One report says police believe the attack is consistent with Islamist terrorism, while another emphasizes the suspect’s age and prior police awareness and Islamist links. Both describe the investigation as ongoing, with investigators working to identify the suspect’s role and whereabouts and to understand the circumstances surrounding the attack.
The sources do not agree on additional details such as the suspect’s full identity, specific prior offenses, or precise motive beyond the terrorism assessment. The manhunt and investigation remain active as authorities continue to gather evidence and determine whether there are other suspects.
