There were 5 perpetrators. One has been arrested, a second was reportedly shot, and the others are on the run. The first suspected perpetrator stated that more attacks were apparently planned.
According to the suspect, two cars were supposed to drive into the Christmas market, kill as many people as possible, and then collide in the center to detonate a bomb (which is still active and is currently being defused).
Meanwhile, the remaining attackers were supposed to intercept fleeing people in the Allee Center.
Rescue teams from Zerbst are on their way, Dessau is preparing reinforcements, Halle has dispatched helicopters, and the police are calling in special forces.
