Lorry ploughs into German market, killing one person

One person has died and several have been injured as a lorry ploughed into a Christmas market in central Berlin, police say.


Video footage from the scene shows stalls knocked over and people lying injured on the ground.

It is unclear whether it was an accident or whether the vehicle was deliberately driven into the stalls.

The market is at Breitscheidplatz, close to the Kaiser Wilhelm memorial church on the Kurfuerstendamm.
