Trier Attack Update

 It's still hyped a bit, and a page one discussion item.....from Tuesday morning.

Police have interviewed the 51-year old German guy.  What the authorities say from the interview....the guy is incoherent (even a day after the drunkenness has worn off). Based on local's description of the guy....Wednesday was probably the first day in 30 years that the guy wasn't drunk.  

Arrests before?  None.  There is no record of issues...not even a DWI.  

Vehicle used?  Land Rover, a fairly expensive SUV.  He'd owned the vehicle up until recently....sold it for cash, and borrowed it back (some folks suggest that he was living in it).  

Neighbors that knew the guy....say he was always drunk and known for being mostly unemployed (suggesting for over 20 years).

Grief around Trier?  It's had a fairly harsh affect.  One of the dead was a local school teacher. 

No political motive....no terror motive....just a plain nutcase situation.
