This incident comes a week after a deadly knife attack in Solingen that left three people dead and eight others seriously wounded.
The suspect is a 26-year-old Syrian national who was previously due for deportation after his asylum application was rejected.
Following that incident, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s government introduced new restrictions on carrying knives in public places.
It also began deporting convicted criminals back to Afghanistan for the first time since the Taliban retook power in 2021 in a deal facilitated by Qatar.
