So far, all the people killed in the incident were employees of the youth welfare office at Dankersstraße, which included four women and two men. The facility was designed to offer women and their children safety and protection. All news reports indicate that the mother and the child remained unharmed during the mass shooting.
The suspect was known to the police but not as a violent offender, but according to permit information, he was not legally in possession of a gun. Investigators are working to understand how he gained access to a firearm.
According to NDR and WDR news outlets, the alleged perpetrator belongs to the large Miri clan from Hanover, which is known for criminal activities.
Since the man was born in Germany and has German citizenship, these six murders will likely be recorded as “German” crimes in the crime statistics.
An eyewitness told Focus Online that a woman and a young man had allegedly tried to flee the scene by car. A police officer shouted: “Stop, stand still.” When the car kept moving, several officers opened fire, with at least 10 to 15 shots fired.
Two other women were taken in for police questioning, one of them the child’s 34-year-old mother. The 65-year-old driver of the car was also still being questioned.
Chancellor Friedrich Merz addressed the shooting on X: “The news from Stade shakes us to the core. Many people who wanted to help and protect have lost their lives or been injured. My compassion goes out to the victims and their loved ones. I thank the police officers for their swift response.”
Die Nachricht aus Stade erschüttert bis ins Mark. Viele Menschen, die helfen und schützen wollten, haben ihr Leben verloren oder wurden verletzt. Mein Mitgefühl gilt den Opfern und ihren Angehörigen. Ich danke den Polizisten und Polizistinnen für ihren schnellen Einsatz.
