The East African victim was left seriously wounded after being shot in Wächtersbach, near Frankfurt, after being fired at from a vehicle in broad daylight. The victim is said to be in a stable condition after emergency surgery. In a statement, the prosecutor's office in Frankfurt said a "xenophobic motive has to be taken into consideration". While searching for the perpetrator, police said they later found a 55-year-old German man "apparently lifeless" in a vehicle in a neighbouring town. It also reported that police found objects which indicated links to the right-wing extremist scene while searching the suspect's home.
