Authorities say a driver has plowed into people in a busy shopping area in the German city of Leipzig. Two people were killed, and the mayor said three others were seriously injured Monday afternoon in what officials believe was a deliberate rampage. An unspecified number of people sustained less serious injuries. The driver, a 33-year-old German citizen, was detained in the car. Police said he was a German-born resident of the Leipzig area. Prosecutors said he is under investigation on suspicion of murder and attempted murder.
