Suspect in Berlin Holocaust memorial stabbing sought to kill Jews

JL;DR SUMMARY A 19-year-old Syrian suspect has been arrested following a stabbing incident at Berlin's Holocaust memorial, targeting Jews as per his confession.

But then again, maybe that's why I found the place s'durned innarestin'.
