have yet to publicly confirm those claims the crash happened in the city if limbaugh in the state of hessen the driver drove the truck into a line of cars pushing vehicles into each other police have detained the driver of the vehicle there are also unconfirmed media reports that he is a syrian who's been living in germany since 2015 and may already have been known to police or political correspondent simon young is following the story forests simon what's latest. terry the latest update that i have is that of the 9 people that are reported to have been lightly injured in this incident 7 of being treated in hospital and we believe among those the driver of the truck the other detail is that the security expert from the that suggestion is public broadcaster. quoting sources saying that this man had apparently tried several times on monday to get control of a of a truck or similar vehicle so it looks as if if that's right that this wasn't absolutely spontaneous but what we still can't say is really what might be the motive was was it sort of a you know a deliberate terror attack something pla

i'm visiting the xcel shooting club in hessen where 14 year old calin is training. with around 1400000 members the german shooting federation is one of the largest german sports associations kalin west stiff shooting closed to give her a more stable posture. unlike in switzerland young people here shoot only with air rifles. there's a special reason why catalin took up this hobby 2 years ago she was struggling with her concentration and her mother had the idea to register her with the rifle club she'd heard that shooting can have a therapeutic effect and boost attention span since then carolyn has been training at least twice a week the 2 hour session not only includes shooting but also progressive muscle relaxation. so i still remember what you were lying 2 years ago the vast adama's how well i was still very unfocused and didn't have that much stamina and stuff. and ok and what happened with how do you feel now compared to then. and i've become much better at school i'm getting much better grades i can definitely concentrate well in class. and you'd say that's rel

yesterday in the town of him though there was an incident yesterday in the town of lim book in the state of hessen where a man took a truck and crashed a truck into a series of cars in limbo and yesterday the whole discussion was about the motive of that particular incident whether it could have been a terror attack whether they could have been other motives we're still we still don't know what the confirmed motive behind that incident could have been. what we know is that that incident yesterday and this incident today do add to a sense of insecurity that germans may be feeling at least compared to previous months or weeks when that seemed to have been more relaxed although it is also important to stress that authorities had been on alert they. arnold if you ask authorities if you interview authorities they will always say that they're still investigating they're looking at possible security risks in germany and that they're always on alert but if you look at the specific mood that say a few weeks ago people were not necessarily speaking a lot about security in germany there were other topics on

well that's right so media in the state of hessen limbo is located have reported that a special and tara unit of police raided a an apartment in a place called lang and that's just south of frankfort. about 5060 kilometers from lynn book and as far as i understand it that appears to be where this man was living so the police have moved. obviously trying to assess you know whether he had any radicalization what his motives are we've also heard media reports that he was known to police for drug related crime and what was described as violent criminality so he's not unknown to the police but again as i say any suggestion that this might be some kind of extremist terror attack. which has arisen because of the sort of optical similarity with the 2016 truck attack in berlin that at the moment is purely speculative. i'm young with the latest on this incident thank you simon for your reporting. found the german interior minister who offer has been guarded about his assessment of the incident his war. middle speaking investigated but at this time i cannot tell you how this crime will be classifie

the soccer federation of hessen has only registered 2 incidents of anti-semitism in the last season but alan meyer believes that many cases go unreported he wants action. information on anti-semitic incidents to be properly gathered and for there to be an appropriate response at the same time we need to build support structures for these associations and sports clubs through a commissioner of anti-semitism in sports. the soccer association is open to these ideas even as a lot is already being done to solve the problem instead of just using punishment it also teaches german jewish history. already tackling this problem for. founders about the history and the extent of the problem and frank educational center for example in order to enlighten them about the past. lucian. back to my car by the e.u.'s team has ended their game and they won 10 to one the campaign against anti semitism however will continue into overtime. now the 17th century dutch artist rembrandt is considered one of the greatest visual artists of all time and certainly the most important in dutch art history his spanish co

in the state of hessen and as you say it is the seat of a catholic bishop rick which is one reason why it might be well be known nationwide but. if this attack ease of course something that will call to many people's minds the christmas market attack in 2016 in berlin where 12 people lost their lives it has the similarity at least that back to was a truck that had been stolen from from its driver and then was driven. into a into civilians. who were at a christmas markets and as i say 12 people were killed that was subsequently shown to have been a premeditated attack and believe the superficial similarity that a truck is involved here with well and we're seeing those pictures that i think will inevitably remind. all of those events just a few years ago so the vaccines the basis at this stage for for a link. between the 2 events or any idea that they smite this might be in premeditated attack ok of course you're free to around christmas of 2016 resulted in 12 people being killed in this case we have 9 people injured i'd like to maybe hear a little bit from you about the the people who h
