Breitbart.com reports: “At least two people have been killed, including a child, in a mass stabbing at a historic but now crime-plagued park in a Bavarian town.

The latest on the Aschaffenburg park attack is that the two people who were killed were a two-year-old boy suffering ‘multiple stab wounds’ and a 41-year-old man. The arrested suspect is a 28-year-old Afghan male, so says local police in a statement.

The deceased adult male is reported to have put himself between the knifeman and the children…”
