Several people were injured after a man drove into them in a car park at <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/world/london-bound-easyjet-plane-evacuated-after-suspicious-terror-conversation-1.65406" target="_blank">Cologne-Bonn Airport </a>in western Germany on Friday. The man, who was driving a rental car, injured “five or six” people in the incident, two of them police officers, a state police representative said. The 57-year-old allegedly drove straight at people, but most were able to avoid him, German news agency dpa reported. No one’s life was in danger, police said, and victims' injuries are considered to be “mostly minor”. He also reportedly drove into several cars. The suspect was detained and taken to hospital in <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/mena/syria/2022/06/21/syrian-refugee-carves-two-metre-model-of-cologne-cathedral/" target="_blank">Cologne</a>, and is set to be admitted to a closed psychiatric ward, due to indications of psychological problems. Police later said the man had allegedly stolen a van from a rental car company in the airport's car park. It was not known how he got the keys to the car, but dpa reported that it had only recently been returned and was about to be cleaned. The man then drove across the parking garage, apparently aiming for pedestrians and cars, shifting gears, going forward and backward over and over again until police stopped him, dpa reported.
