Germany says fatal Berlin Pride attack believed to be an act of Islamic extremist terror

A van ramming and stabbing near Berlin’s Pride festival that left one person dead and many others injured is believed to have been an Islamic extremist terror attack. That's according to Germany’s interior minister. The suspect in Saturday night’s attack remains at large. Authorities have issued a wanted notice and warned people against approaching Abdul Ballout, a German citizen with Lebanese roots, saying that he may be armed and dangerous. Authorities say he is believed to have injured several people with a van in a park near the Pride festival’s closing party. Several people were also apparently stabbed.
