Personally I'm not convinced he was all that crazy. Jihadist Motive Not Ruled Out In Deadly Germany Knife Attack
Investigators said Saturday they were examining if radicalisation or psychiatric problems drove a 24-year-old man to go on a knife rampage in the German city of Wuerzburg, stabbing three women to death and leaving six other people seriously injured.
The suspect, a Somali who arrived in Germany in 2015, struck in the city centre on Friday evening, first at a household goods store before moving on to a bank.
Authorities in Germany REALLY don't like to say it was due to Jihad.
But a witness account of the suspect crying "Allah Akbar" (God is greatest) during his killing spree fuelled questions over his motive.
They found "hateful messages" on a phone. Germany: Police puzzle over motive of Würzburg knife attacker
Chief criminal director Armin Kühnert said investigators had also found hateful texts on a phone at the shelter where the man was last based.
Still they want to say he was mentally ill, though they concede it could be both.
