| [TheSun] MAN screamed “Allahu Akbar” as he attacked a couple with their own picnic knife at a German music festival. A 66-year-old woman, believed to be the other victim’s wife, is fighting for her life. Her 57-year-old husband was seriously injured but managed to overpower the attacker who was then arrested by police officers in Oberhausen. The attack took place just after 7pm on Saturday evening near Stadion Niederrhein, Police officers say the suspect is a 26-year-old from Duisburg, Germany. Local media said the man went on a “rampage” at the canal side music event. He harassed several daytrippers before snatching a knife from the floor where the victims were enjoying a riverbank picnic. He was tackled by the injured man as well as a cop and fireman. Police said the man arrested was homeless and on drugs, but have not rules out a “political motivation”. Cops secured the weapon and the attacker is due to face a judge later today. Several revellers at the riverside event were treated for shock. The attacker was also taken to hospital for minor injuries before being transported to jail. |

| #6 MAN screamed “Allahu Akbar” as he attacked a couple. The words "Allahu Akbar" should be treated as a call to war, and anyone uttering it should be shot without hesitation. |

| #3 Let me guess: 1) We have no indication of terrorism at this time. Somewhat later: 2) The subject was previously under investigation by $NATIONAL_SECURITY_SERVICE, but was determined not to be an immediate threat. |

| #2 Police said the man arrested was homeless and on drugs, but have not rules out a “political motivation”. Here we go again. This would be comical if it didn't happen so often. |
