Vehicle attack in Volkmarsen, Germany

On 24 February 2020, a man rammed his car against a crowd at a carnival parade in Volkmarsen, Hesse, Germany, injuring 88 people. In total, 150 people were considered "negatively affected or traumatized by the incident", and it was later described to the courts as a "miracle" that no one had been killed. The attack came only days after nine people were killed in a terrorist shooting spree in Hanau, near Frankfurt.
