A rampage which saw a man reportedly plough a car through crowds of people before getting out and stabbing bystanders has left three dead and at least 34 injured.

The horrific scene unfolded in Graz, Austria, at 12:30 today where police have allegedly arrested a 26-year-old man who they claim has Bosnian roots.

Local media has reported that after driving the SUV into the crowd, seemingly targeting people at random.

After the vehicle stopped the man left it and used a knife to attack several people.

Police have now sealed off the area, and reportedly covered two bodies with blankets.

Some reports hold the death count at two, and say a seven-year-old boy and a woman have been killed, however these are unconfirmed.

A statement from the city council said: ‘At 12pm there was an appalling incident in the centre of Graz, which has caused major alarm and left the city deeply shaken.

‘A killer used his car as a weapon and deliberately ran people down on a rampage. The perpetrator is in custody.’

Awful. Glad police caught him.
 
Would have been more dead if they were allowed to have guns.
