Two injured in stabbing in German city of Erfurt
[Jpost] Two people have been injured in a stabbing attack in the east German city of Erfurt, according to German media.

German news site Die Welt reported on Monday morning that an unknown perpetrator attacked two members of the public, aged 45 and 68, with a knife before fleeing the scene.

The attacker is being described by German police officials as being in his twenties, having light hair, and a scarred face.
Eventually, the officers tracked down and detained the 32-year-old suspect in his own apartment.

The police said the alleged assailant was also injured, but his injuries appeared to be self-inflicted. The authorities moved the suspect to a hospital.

Police said the suspect in Monday's attack, identified as Johannes L.,
...how quickly they name the non-Muslim ones, unconcerned about creating prejudice...
had a history of mental issues and violent mostly peaceful crimes. There was no indication that the stabbings were politically motivated.
Deutsche Welle now thoughtfully adds the following public service message to all such stories:
If you are suffering from serious emotional strain or suicidal thoughts, do not hesitate to seek professional help. You can find information on where to find such help, no matter where you live in the world, at this website: https://www.befrienders.org/
