Authorities are updating the episode in Volkmarsen (here in Hessen) from a few days ago, where the driver went into a crowd of people. Still at this point.....no deaths, just injuries. The number is up to around 61, with twenty of them being kids.
Focus reports today that the guy has not been questioned yet (this comes from Tuesday evening). They aren't saying why the delay, but I suspect that he's a bit drugged up.
Some other comments suggest the guy had never held any employment (he was 29), and mostly just a druggie (suggesting his parents gave him enough to cover expenses and drugs).
The suggestion of right-wing extremism? It basically got thrown out there, and nothing supports it.
This is a town of roughly 6,000 residents, and what local said was that roughly a hundred folks from the region are hardcore druggies. In the end, they may find there is no motivation for the harmful act, it was just drug-induced fury, and then what?
You can look around most German communities now and note various druggies existing. Some use petty crime to survive....some get enough cash from their parents or the government (via welfare). As much as they are hyped up to take down right-wing extremism....there just isn't any hype to take down the druggie scene or correct this behavior of society.
