TIL Desk/World/Berlin-A Syrian refugee has been killed setting off a bomb at a bar in southern Germany which also wounded a dozen other people, authorities say, the third attack to hit Bavaria in a week. The 27-year-old man, whose asylum application was rejected a year ago, had been targeting a nearby pop music festival, regional interior minister Joachim Herrmann said.
Some 2,500 people have been evacuated from the concert after the explosion went off in front of a bar in the centre of Ansbach at around 10:00 PM (local time) yesterday. Police have blocked off the city centre and emergency services were at the scene. Bomb experts were also on their way to determine the cause of the blast.
“An explosion went off in the city centre and a man, who the latest enquiries show caused it, was killed in the event,” police said in a statement. A dozen people were wounded in the explosion, three of them seriously, added a spokeswoman, without giving any more details.
