After three people were killed in a stabbing at a folk festival in Solingen, Germany on Friday evening, a manhunt is underway for him.

Here’s what we know so far:

• Three people were killed and eight injured in a knife attack at a diversity festival in the western German city of Solingen, police said.

• Witnesses informed the police yesterday evening shortly after 9:30 p.m. that an unknown attacker had injured several people with a knife on the Fronhof, the city’s central square.

• The police are still looking for the attacker, who fled the scene. They assume that the stabbings were carried out by a lone perpetrator. The motive for the attack is still unclear.

• The stabbings occurred during a diversity festival marking the city’s 650th anniversary, which began on Friday and was due to last until Sunday. Organizers had expected thousands of visitors.

• The authorities have cancelled the rest of the festival weekend.

• Chancellor Olaf Scholz said on Saturday that the perpetrator must be caught quickly and punished to the full extent permitted by law.

• The country’s Interior Minister, Nancy Faeser, said in an update on X that police are still searching for the attacker and trying to determine a motive.
