3 people were killed and 6 others injured at a diversity festival in Solingen, Germany, when a man with a knife went on a rampage.

'We are all in shock, horror and great sadness in Solingen. We all wanted to celebrate our city's anniversary together and now we have to mourn dead and injured people,' Mayor Tim Kurzbach said in a statement Friday night.

Police officials said that three people were killed, six severely injured and two lightly. Four of the six severely injured are still in a life-threatening condition.

According to reports from the scene, and according to a German newspaper, witnesses heard the unidentified attacker shouting "Allahu Akbar" during what is being called a potential act of terrorism.

A report from the Solingen police, which WELT AM SONNTAG has access to, states verbatim: 'A witness who was injured in the attack stated that the unknown suspect was 'known from Solingen' and that he was also a visitor to a local mosque. A witness reported that the suspect shouted 'Allahu Akbar' during his actions.'

Again, this attack happened at a diversity festival.

How's that diversity working out for you, Germany?

Police have detained a 15-year-old in connection with the attack, however latest reports are that the attacker is still a fugitive from justice and police are on the hunt.

On Saturday, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz expressed shock at the killings, saying that he mourns the victims and underscored that 'the perpetrator must be caught quickly and punished to the full extent of the law.'

'It breaks my heart that there was an attack on our city. I have tears in my eyes when I think of those we lost. I pray for everyone who is still fighting for their lives,' Kurzbach said.

We also hope that the terrorist is brought to justice.
