German police say 2 killed, several injured in Trier when car hits pedestrians; driver arrested

BERLIN (AP) – German officials say a man zig-zagged an SUV at high speed through a pedestrian zone in the southwestern German city of Trier, killing five people, including a 9-month-old child, and seriously injuring more than a dozen. The driver, identified as a 51-year-old German man born in Trier, was arrested at the scene and the vehicle was impounded, Trier police said. Footage from the scene Tuesday showed people outside a shop apparently helping someone on the ground lying among scattered debris. Trier is about 120 miles west of Frankfurt, near the border with Luxembourg.
