Police and prosecutors asked for help in finding the 21-year-old, whom they identified as Abdul B.<\/p>\n

They said he is believed to have injured several people with a moving vehicle late Saturday evening, and that one or more people apparently then left that vehicle. Several people were also apparently stabbed, they added.<\/p>\n

Sunday\u2019s notice warned the public to avoid \u201cdirect contact\u201d with the suspect, saying that he may be armed and dangerous.<\/p>\n

Police had said earlier that they had identified a suspect who has ties to Islamic groups in the German capital.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe suspect is known to police. He is known to us as a member of Islamic circles here in Berlin, and our search for this person is proceeding at full speed,\u201d police spokesperson Florian Nath said. <\/p>\n

Nath added that investigators had no information on \u201chis specific motives.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to police, a white van drove into the Tiergarten park around 10 p.m. and hit several people before colliding with a tree. The closing party at the Pride festival<\/span>, known as Christopher Street Day, was ongoing nearby at the time, following a parade with some 80 trucks that had made its way through downtown Berlin earlier in the day.<\/p>\n

Police said a woman was killed. Berlin\u2019s fire service said that three people sustained life-threatening injuries, another eight were seriously injured and five had slight injuries.<\/p>\n

The Pride event next to the Brandenburg Gate was called off around 10:15 p.m. and a band\u2019s performance on stage was interrupted. People were urged to go home and to avoid taking the route through the park. <\/p>\n

German Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt said he was shocked by \u201cthis cowardly, abhorrent attack on people celebrating peacefully.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hundreds of thousands of people had come to Berlin to celebrate on Saturday, though it\u2019s unclear how many were still at the festival by late evening. It\u2019s one of Europe\u2019s largest LGBTQ+<\/span> celebrations.<\/p>\n
