A Palestinian man who allegedly stabbed one person to death and wounded six others in Hamburg, Germany, on Friday was known to authorities as a suspected Islamic radical and is also psychologically unstable, German officials said Saturday. He was not named by authorities in keeping with Germany privacy laws. He then left the supermarket and hurt another three people outside, not all of them with the knife. "We evaluated him rather as someone who was psychologically unstable than had clear Islamic extremist motivations," Voss said at a news conference. The suspect hasn't yet talked about Friday's attack, prosecutor Joerg Froehlich said, though he has indicated that he acted alone.
