Several people were injured Monday when a car drove into a carnival procession in the central German town of Volkmarsen, police said. "There are dozens of injured, including some who are gravely hurt," a spokeswoman for Volkmarsen police told AFP.

Speaking to DPA news agency, a police spokesman added that children were among the injured. The driver has been arrested.

Germany is on high alert following a shooting spree by a far-right gunman in the city of Hanau, also in Hesse, last Wednesday, that left 10 people dead.

Monday's incident took place as residents in many parts of the country celebrate Rose Monday, a highlight of annual carnival festivities that sees adults and children alike dress up and attend parades where people play music and throw candies from floats.

According to the Daily Mail

Police in Germany have tonight searched the home of a driver who deliberately drove a car into crowds at a German Carnival parade on Monday afternoon.

Special police officers dressed in all black with protective gear were seen entering the property of the 29-year-old who has been arrested for attempted murder after he ploughed his Mercedes into the carnival crowd packed with children.

30 people were injured following the incident and forensic officers have now set up a cordon around the car, with pictures showing several officers examining the silver vehicle.

The driver, a 29-year-old German citizen, mounted the pavement in the town of Volkmarsen, 15 miles west of Kassel, around 2.30pm on Monday before ploughing into families that had turned out for the festivities.

Police arrested the driver at the scene. While officers could not disclose a motive for the attack, local media reported that investigators are working on the assumption that it was deliberate and that investigators were looking into all possibilities.

German police say he is being treated by doctors due to injuries he suffered in the incident, and prosecutors [say] he now faces charges of attempted homicide. Reports suggest he was from the local area and had no history of political extremism.

    whatever, brainwashed dhimmi bitch. just pointing out that the media is usually full of shit in these matters.

    regarding your "NAZI" bullshit...

    Hitler was just trying to remove invasive subversives from the country, especially the International Jew banksters. Jews that had already declared war on Germany and betrayed Germany during world war 1. What did the Jews do in response to German defensive measures? Send their slave states the US, Russia and the UK to kill about 100 million Aryans, including the brain washed troops of these interloping slave states. Patton figured out at the end of the war that Germany was not the real enemy, though he still hadn't figured out that the enemy wasn't Russia either, but the people controlling all of the slave states.

    "It is necessary that I shall die for my people. But my spirit will rise from the grave and the world shall know that I was right." Adolf Hitler.

    I'm confused, are you going with "Invading Poland was a necessary step in the removejew quest"? Or "The jews made Hitler invade Poland?"

      Nazis can't decide if Jews are animal rejects or ubermench that will crush their inferior aryan blood.

      Same goes for most other races, actually. I think there is a reason they are so insecure.
