    A man wielding a knife in the German city of Würzburg has killed
    three people and injured several others, according to local
    authorities.

    Videos on social media showed the man armed with a large knife
    being confronted and subdued by passers-by.

    The suspect, a Somali man aged 24, was shot in the thigh before
    being arrested.

    Police said he had been violent and mentally unstable and had
    recently received psychiatric treatment

    Police were alerted to the attack at around 17:00 local time
    (15:00 GMT), in the city centre's Barbarossa Square.

    Bavarian Interior Minister Joachim Herrmann told reporters that,
    of those who were injured, five were in serious condition and it
    was "not certain" if they would survive.

    If he had a gun he could have got a decent body count. Interesting
    watching the people keeping him controlled till the cops arrived. Should
    have used a shopping trolley as they did in Sydney
