            Germany axe attack: Assault on train in Wurzburg injures HK family


            http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-36827725

            A teenage Afghan refugee armed with an axe and knife injured four people on a train in southern Germany before being shot dead by police, officials say.
            Three people in a group from Hong Kong were seriously hurt and one slightly injured in the attack in Wurzburg. Another 14 were treated for shock.
            Bavarian Interior Minister Joachim Herrmann said the attacker was killed as he tried to flee the scene.
            The motive for the attack is not yet clear.
            The South China Morning Post said it was believed the four injured were a 62-year-old man, his 58-year-old wife, their daughter, 27, and her boyfriend, 31. The 17-year-old son travelling with them was not hurt, it said.
            A source told the paper the father and boyfriend had tried to protect the other members of the group.
            'Exclamation'
            Mr Herrmann said the attacker was a 17-year-old Afghan refugee who had been living in the nearby town of Ochsenfurt.
            He told public broadcaster ARD that the teenager appeared to have travelled to Germany as an unaccompanied minor.

            Mr Herrmann said authorities were looking into reports that the attacker had yelled out \"an exclamation\". Some witnesses quoted by German media said they had heard him shout \"Allahu akbar\" (\"God is great\") during the attack.
            'Slaughterhouse'
            The incident happened at about 21:15 (19:15 GMT) on the train which runs between Treuchlingen and Wurzburg.
            \"Shortly after arriving at Wurzburg, a man attacked passengers with an axe and a knife,\" a police spokesman said.
            Police said the attacker had fled the train but was chased by officers who shot him dead.

            Emergency services sealed off the area of the attack
            One local man told DPA news agency that the train carriage where the attack took place \"looked like a slaughterhouse\".
            He said he saw people crawl from the carriage and ask for a first-aid kit while other victims lay on the floor inside.
            Hong Kong Chief Executive Leung Chun-ying has condemned the attack. Immigration officials from the city will accompany family members to Germany.
            Although the motive has not been established, the BBC's Damien McGuinness in Berlin says there is nervousness in Germany about attacks by Islamist extremists following the attacks across the border in France.
            In May, a man reportedly shouting \"Allahu akbar\" killed a man and wounded three others in a knife attack at a railway station near the German city of Munich.
            He was later sent to a psychiatric hospital and authorities said they had found no links to Islamic extremism.

                Imagine how despair this mum was before killing her own flesh ...
                If somebody could just lend a helping hand to this family, then the situation will be entirely different.

                  May their souls rest in peace. Sadly, for every story reported, there will be many more such sucides that go unreported. How would we possibly help everyone?

                        Today there is earthquake n tsunami in Japan n earthquake in New Zealand.


                        Everyday I wake up to depressing news of the chaos in the world.

                        2016 is not a good year and I doubt 2017 will be better.

                        Sigh!
