stripeyfox Posted 19 December 2016 Posted 19 December 2016 Police confirm nine dead and the driver is "on the run". Being treated as a deliberate attack
Fox92 Posted 19 December 2016 Posted 19 December 2016 Now in custody apparently. Absolutely shocking. Similar to earlier in the year.

The company said the truck left Poland this afternoon heading to Berlin and that they lost touch with the driver at 4pm local time. It would appear that the lorry might have been hijacked.

StanSP Posted 19 December 2016 Posted 19 December 2016 One of my mate's friends are over in Berlin and the market is at the end of the street they're staying in. They didn't go out to the market as they ended up having a long nap

tom27111 Posted 19 December 2016 Posted 19 December 2016 Bastards can't hijack planes, so they take lorries instead. All in the name of religion I'm guessing. When will people stop dying over bloody make believe entities? Disgusting. Thoughts to those involved and their families.

Latest rumours have it the truck was a rental.

To be fair he didn't even name the religion, even though I'm sure we all thought the same thing as soon as we saw the story. It's another sad event, another sad iteration of a pointless 'war' that has left many innocents dead on both sides.
