Police hunting for Syrian national, 35, after five football fans were stabbed outside a German bar in 'planned' attack
Police are searching for a Syrian national who attacked and injured at least five people in Germany.
Named in local reports as Mahmoud Mhemed, 35, the suspect stabbed the football fans with a knife in front of the Cuties bar in the western city of Bielefeld.
Four men, aged between 22 and 27, and a woman, aged 26, were attacked by Mhemed as they stood in front of the bar in the early hours.
Police said four of the victims suffered serious injuries and were being treated in different hospitals. Two are reportedly in critical condition.
Horrified onlookers attempted to knock the attacker down but Mhemed managed to flee the scene, leaving his backpack behind amid the chaos.
According to local police, as per German newspaper Bild, the bag contained 'personal documents and a bottle containing an unknown liquid that smelled of gasoline,' among other things.
This chilling discovery led to cops believing that the suspect had not acted spontaneously, but had planned the attack and equipped himself for it.
Police spokeswoman Katja Küster: 'The background to the crime and the suspect's motive are currently unknown.

Police and forensic investigators are on the scene following an attack in the western city of Bielefeld, Germany
Four men, aged between 22 and 27, and a woman, aged 26, were reportedly attacked by Mhemed as they stood in front of the bar in the early hours of the morning
The suspect attacked people indiscriminately. Investigations are currently underway at full speed in all directions.
Later police raided Mhemed's apartment in Harsewinkel but he was not there, sparking the force to launch a public manhunt.
Local residents told Bild that they had seen the man there that morning.
Police have described Mhemed as 5ft 2in to 5ft 5in tall, with a stocky build. He has black hair, brown eyes, and was wearing a black hoodie, white T-shirt, black pants, and black baseball cap at the time of the attack.
Investigators have warned: 'If you encounter the suspect, please immediately call the police emergency number 110.
'Please keep your distance and do not endanger yourself. It cannot be ruled out that the suspect is armed.'
German news agency DPA earlier reported that the revelers were soccer fans from a local team who defended themselves against the attacker before he fled.
The city's Arminia Bielefeld soccer club won its match on Saturday, and with it became 3rd division champions.
According to police, the attacker may have also been injured in the face.
Bielefeld police said in a statement that they found several knives at the scene of the attack and that they have activated a witness hotline asking people to upload videos and photos of the attack.
Party leader of the right-wing German party AfD, Alice Weidel, wrote on X that the knife attack is a result of the Christian Democrats' failed policies in the region.
'CDU leader Friedrich Merz refuses to deport Syrian citizens who no longer have valid grounds to be considered refugees. I wish all those injured a speedy recovery', she said.
President Donald Trump has shared a conspiracy theory linking Bill and Hillary Clinton to a series of high-profile deaths.
Trump shared an explosive video on his Truth Social account on Saturday accusing the powerful political couple of eliminating several enemies and potential threats over the decades.
Titled 'THE VIDEO HILLARY CLINTON DOES NOT WANT YOU TO SEE', the footage connects the former First Lady and her husband President Bill Clinton, to a string of deaths including those of John F. Kennedy Jr., DNC staffer Seth Rich, and former White House lawyer Vince Foster.
Trump didn't offer any comment of his own to accompany the post.
The footage pushes the 'Clinton Body Bags' conspiracy theory that has circulated since the 1990s.
The video claims that Hillary Clinton was involved in JFK Jr.'s fatal 1999 plane crash because he was a 'frontrunner' for the New York Senate seat she would later win.
‘Remember John F Kennedy Jr? He was declared the front runner for the New York Senate seat back in 1999 days later, his plane crashed into the Atlantic Ocean, and his rival Hillary Clinton was elected senator,’ the video begins.

Trump shared the explosive video on his Truth Social account on Saturday that alleges the powerful political couple were behind the deaths of seven people
In another explosive allegation, the video claims the Clintons orchestrated the murder of Mary Mahoney, a former White House intern who worked under Bill Clinton's administration in 1997.
‘Mary Mahoney was a Clinton White House intern. She knew enough of the inner workings of Bill's sexual advancements to be a star witness during the Clinton impeachment trials,' the narrator says. 'She was brutally executed at a Starbucks Tuesday in 1997.'
The video also revisits questions about Vince Foster, the deputy White House counsel who died by suicide in 1993.
‘In 1993 White House Counsel Vince Foster was found dead in Fort Marcy park near DC, he supposedly killed himself, and among a lengthy list of potential foul play, the bullet was never found.’
The clip then discusses James McDougal, key witness for White House prosecutors.
'He was serving his three year sentence for bank fraud at the Fort Worth Federal Medical Center in Texas, and just before he was to give the testimony before the grand jury. McDougall suffered a heart attack in solitary confinement in 2015.'
‘Walter Scheib, a White House Chef hired under Bill Clinton, joined the list. His body was found at the bottom of a river nearly two miles from the base of the trail he was reportedly hiking. An autopsy determined that Scheib death was accidental drowning, but he might have known too much.’
The video claims that Hillary Clinton was involved in JFK Jr.'s fatal 1999 plane crash because he was a 'frontrunner' for the New York Senate seat she would later win
The video concludes with the most recent conspiracy death of 27-year-old Democratic National Committee staffer Seth Rich, who was shot and killed in DC in 2016.
'There is speculation that he was the source of the controversial leaked emails sent by DNC staffers, and that he may have been murdered in retaliation.
'On August, 2. His death was reported classified, pending the results of an autopsy.’
In 2019, Trump retweeted conspiracy theories linking his political enemies Bill and Hillary Clinton to Jeffrey Epstein's suicide.
Trump's Twitter feed included a link to a breaking news site which claims that unsealed court documents revealed 'top Democrats, including Bill Clinton, took private trips to Jeffrey Epstein's 'pedophilia island'.'
The video also revisits questions about Vince Foster, the deputy White House counsel who died by suicide in 1993
The president also retweeted a post from Terrence K. Williams, an actor and comedian who was known for his conservative views.
Williams tweeted: 'Died of SUICIDE on 24/7 SUICIDE WATCH ? Yeah right! How does that happen…[Epstein] had information on Bill Clinton & now he's dead.
The post ended with the hashtags #ClintonBodyCount and #ClintonCrimeFamily.
A ship carrying 200 people has collided with the Brooklyn Bridge as it was passing beneath the iconic structure, igniting a rescue operation.
Jaw-dropping footage posted online shows the moment a Mexican Navy ship's 147-foot mast collided with the bridge just before 9pm on Saturday night.
A search and rescue operation has been launched to pull people from the cold water of the East River.
It is understood at least three people are in critical condition and about a dozen others are severely injured, officials said.
Victims are being taken to the Brooklyn Navy Yard. Those who have suffered injuries are been transported to local hospitals.
The Coast Guard confirmed to DailyMail.com emergency efforts are currently underway.
Shocked onlookers could be seen gathering on the nearby pier watching the horrifying moment unfold.
'That sh*t's about to crash,' one terrified witness exclaimed as the boat, bearing a large Mexican flag, was seconds away from disaster.
'Oh sh*t!' he screamed as people flocked away from the pier when the boat, named the Cuauhtémo, collided with the bridge - causing the masts to plummet onto the deck and sending passengers into the water.
The vessel was seen in horrifying footage colliding with Brooklyn Bridge just before 9pm on Friday night
The ship's mast was seen snapping backwards as the boat continued to move forward
In an X statement, the Mexican Navy explained in Spanish: 'During the sailing maneuver of the Cuauhtémoc sailboat in New York, a mishap occurred with the Brooklyn Bridge, causing damage to the training ship, preventing the continuation of the training cruise for the time being.
'The status of personnel and equipment is being reviewed by naval and local authorities, who are providing support.
'The Navy reaffirms its commitment to personnel safety, transparency in its operations, and excellent training for future officers of the Mexican Navy.'
The boat sustained damage to its mast but continued to pass under the iconic bridge.
After opening the border to millions of invaders and welcoming in everyone from Al Qaeda members to drug cartel members, the open borders crowd finally found refugees it won’t take.
The media, which had spent the past decade suggesting that anyone questioning the arrival of millions of people from drug and terror states was a bigot is warning against refugees whose government just passed a law allowing it to confiscate their property because of their race.
The problem with this particular group of refugees is their skin color. They’re white. And they’re fleeing a Communist regime that turned the country into a war zone where the power is only occasionally on and where 72 people are murdered every day by gangs and racist militias.
When President Trump offered asylum to Afrikaners, there was outrage even though they met every possible criteria for refugee status..They face constant violence, discriminatory treatment, land seizures, life in refugee camps and constant calls for genocide by the ruling racial majority.
“The expropriation of land without compensation is envisaged as one of the measures that we will use to accelerate redistribution of land to black South Africans,” President Cyril Ramaphosa vowed. The people whose land was being redistributed were white South Africans.
But the arrival of 54 members of the minority group of Dutch-descended people was met with suspicion and hostility by the media which had welcomed every previous refugee group. A media outlet warned of an “influx of white South Africans within days.” 54 Afrikaner refugees are an “influx” but millions of migrants, many of them violent criminals, are a humanitarian case and not an influx, an invasion or anything to be at all concerned about.
In 2023, 169 migrants invading America were flagged on terror watchlists. In the past few months, several Afghan ‘refugees’ committed stabbing attacks. But leftists are not nearly as concerned about that as they are about 54 people, many with families in America, coming here.
According to NPR, these “white descendants of mainly Dutch colonizers” are expected to arrive within days from anonymous sources who “did not want to be named because they work for the U.S. government and fear for their careers.” The publicly funded media outlet complained that the process of “granting them refugee status has been unusually quick.” But when Biden decided to fly in over 100,000 Afghans, NPR cheered and didn’t complain about the speed.
The Washington Post objected that the dozens of refugees were not sufficiently vetted. No such complaints were made when Biden allowed ISIS and Al Qaeda terrorists into America. The Post whined that the Afrikaners were not “going through a cultural orientation program required of all other refugees before their arrival”. That may be because their culture doesn’t require orientation since they don’t believe that infidels are fair game for rape or mass murder.
During the Biden administration, the standards for asylum hit such a low bar that virtually anyone was eligible. Imaginary categories such as “climate refugees” who were fleeing bad weather and refugees fleeing high-crime nations only to move to Chicago abounded.
The vast majority of migrants being admitted to America had a much weaker case than the Afrikaner refugees because they could not show that they faced political persecution.
The case for granting refugee status to Afrikaners is straightforward. Their rejection by the refugee resettlement industry is an admission of its institutional illegitimacy and racism.
A decade ago, President Zuma, long since ousted, began the celebrations of the African National Congress’s 100-year anniversary with the ritual sacrifice of a bull and after the blood spilled out on the ground, he sang, “Kill the Boer” or “Kill the Farmer.” The genocidal song continues to be a major feature of South African political life. Julius Malema of the Economic Freedom Fighters, regularly chants it. The EFF won 10% of seats in the last election and its base of support means 1.5 million South African voters want to see white people exterminated.
Current ANC boss Cyril Ramaphosa has refused to condemn calls for white genocide and instead adopted the EFF’s racial land expropriation program originally implemented by Mugabe in Zimbabwe. Earlier this year, South Africa passed a law allowing the government to seize land in the name of “inclusivity”. This was obvious code for racially motivated expropriations.
After President Trump and Elon Musk condemned South Africa’s actions, the media put out fact checks falsely claiming that this was not a law based on race, but President Ramaphosa boasted last year that “through redistribution, around 25% of farmland in our country is now owned by black South Africans, bringing us closer to achieving our target of 30% by 2030.”
Despite just passing a law to seize land from white farmers, South Africa protested the granting of asylum to Afrikaner refugees by arguing that the refugees don’t meet the criteria because they don’t “have a well-founded fear of persecution”. The constant killings of white farmers, the estimated half a million dispossessed farmers and their families living in refugee camps, the calls for their extermination by top South African officials and passing a law seizing their land apparently is not enough to qualify as persecution or to give them grounds for political asylum.
The evidence that Afrikaners are a persecuted minority is undeniable. The Left is not protesting because it doesn’t believe that they’re being persecuted, it believes that they deserve to be persecuted because they’re white and escaping a country run by the African National Congress which has close historical and current ties to South Africa’s Communist Party and is currently allied with the old Communist coalition of China and Russia as well as Hamas.
The Left previously fought against refugee status for people fleeing Communist countries. It’s now doing the same thing in South Africa but with the added spice of a racial element.
The open borders movement that welcomed rapists and terrorists draws the line at law-abiding people with the wrong skin color and the wrong politics. Forget #RefugeesWelcome. The new hashtag is “WhiteRefugeesNotWelcome and #RefugeesFromCommunismNotWelcome.
Eight out of 10 ginger cats are male - and scientists have finally found out why
It is commonly believed that a ginger cat is more likely to cause trouble than other breeds but most feline fans might not realise that orange-coloured moggies are predominantly male.
Scientists have now uncovered why 80 per cent of domestic ginger cats are boys - and it is all to do with the Arhgap36 gene.
This piece of DNA, also found in humans, usually controls the nervous and hormonal systems, with no relation to pigmentation.
But American researchers found in a cat’s X chromosome a variation that switches on the Arhgap36 gene inside pigment cells.
For male cats - who are made up of XY chromosomes - they only need one piece of this DNA to turn them orange.
Whereas female cats - whose make-up is XX chromosomes - would need both pieces of this gene to match up to make them completely ginger.
Having only one will lead to a partial tinge in a tortoiseshell or calico pattern.
Other ginger-tinged mammals, like orangutans, tigers - and even redheads - will have this disruption take place at an earlier stage in a different gene and so affect males and females equally.
Scientists have now uncovered why 80 per cent of domestic ginger cats are boys - and it is all to do with the Arhgap36 gene
‘This is a very unusual mechanism where you get misexpression of a gene in a specific cell type,’ Dr Christopher Kaelin from Stanford Medicine in California said.
'In a number of species that have yellow or orange pigment, those mutations almost exclusively occur in one of two genes, and neither of those genes are sex-linked.'
The lead researcher of the study published in Current Biology, which looked at 51 variations of cat genes, said that it arose ‘probably early on in the domestication process’.
Paintings from the 12th century have depicted ginger cats, suggesting this mutation has been around for hundreds of years and could have become more common as humans bred them for their radiant colouring.
'We know that because there are paintings that date to the 12th century where you see clear images of calico cats, so the mutation is quite old,' Dr Kaelin explained.
So while ginger cats may be known as feisty, chaotic or fearless, this might just be down to them being male.
‘There are not many scientific studies of the personality of orange cats,’ the lead researcher added
Dr Anna Foreman, in-house Vet at Everypaw Pet Insurance, told MailOnline that though the science is vague, there is plenty of anecdotal evidence pointing to the conclusion that gingers are wilder than their counterparts.
'Studies on owner's perception of their cat's personality have shown that ginger cats are seen as more friendly, affectionate and playful,' she explained.
Ginger cats are not only known for their extroverted personalities, but have become notorious through their popularity in pop culture and media.
Winston Churchill famously kept an orange cat called Tango, and celebrities including Elizabeth Moss and Ian Somerhalder have shared snaps of their copper-haired felines on social media too.
Elsewhere the film Garfield, which features a friendly but exceptionally lazy, ginger cat, has also likely played a part in people's association with the spirited creatures.
One TikToker took to social media to share a video of her ginger feline greeting her very noisily. 'Orange cat behaviour' has amassed millions of views on TikTok, show the strange and wild actions of the auburn felines
One ginger cat pictured braving the icy cold snow, despite being notorious for their dislike of water
A ginger tabby pictured looking confused as they attempted to whack down their owners fingers - there is little evidence to definitively say if ginger cats are genetically more likely to wilder but anecdotal proof suggests they are
In videos posted on social media, ginger cats can also be seen acting with bountiful energy and bravery, with one clip showing a pet jump from the top of an electricity pole all the way to the floor, much to their owner's horror.
Cat behaviour expert Roger Tabor explained that science points towards there being differences in breed temperament but little to point directly to colour changing cat's behaviour, despite the claims made of orange cats.
The vet explained: 'Male cats are generally more adventurous and friendly, being especially adventurous if they have not been neutered, which is why the population of mainly male ginger cats may be seen as such.'
MLB announces stunning decision allowing two scandalized legends to receive Hall of Fame honors
In an absolutely stunning decision, Major League Baseball commissioner Rob Manfred has reversed the lifetime bans that would prevent 'Shoeless' Joe Jackson and Pete Rose from being voted into the Baseball Hall of Fame.
Rose and Jackson had been placed on the 'permanently ineligible' list to be enshrined in Cooperstown by MLB for decades due to accusations of gambling on their own team's games.
Now, both Jackson and Rose are set to potentially be voted into the Hall of Fame after years of petitioning to allow either of them to be included.
In a letter to attorney Jeffrey Lenkov, who petitioned on the late Rose's behalf for removal from the list on January 8, Manfred has now established precedent for a player being taken off the 'permanently ineligible' list.
'Obviously, a person no longer with us cannot represent a threat to the integrity of the game,' Manfred's letter said.
'Moreover, it is hard to conceive of a penalty that has more deterrent effect than one that lasts a lifetime with no reprieve.
Pete Rose is now be eligible for Hall of Fame induction after a decision by MLB's commissioner
Commissioner Rob Manfred removed the names of players who had died from the list
Manfred's decision also allows White Sox star 'Shoeless' Joe Jackson to be considered
Therefore, I have concluded that permanent ineligibility ends upon the passing of the disciplined individual, and Mr. Rose will be removed from the permanently ineligible list.'
Both Rose and Jackson will likely be considered for enshrinement by the Hall's Classic Baseball Era Committee - which evaluates players whose careers ended over 15 years ago. The two will need 12 of 16 votes to be inducted and the committee doesn't meet again until December 2027 to select players for enshrinement in 2028.
The ban for Rose has been held in place since 1989 and was instituted by late commissioner A. Bartlett Giamatti after an investigation revealed he had been betting on games while he managed the Cincinnati Reds.
Meanwhile, Jackson's ban was instituted by MLB's first commissioner, Kennesaw Mountain Landis, in 1921 - along with the rest of the 1919 Chicago White Sox for the infamous 'Black Sox' scandal which saw the team purposely fix the World Series.
But now, Manfred's decision allows the entire 1919 White Sox team to be eligible for induction.
In addition to Rose, Jackson, and the 'Black Sox', former Philadelphia Phillies president Williams Cox and former New York Giants outfielder Benny Kauff will be eligible.
Rose first applied for reinstatement in September 1997, but Commissioner Bud Selig never ruled on the request. Manfred in 2015 rejected a petition for reinstatement, saying 'Rose has not presented credible evidence of a reconfigured life.'
Rose died on September 30 at age 83, and a new petition was filed Jan. 8 by Lenkov, a lawyer who had represented Rose for years. Both Lenkov and Rose's daughter Fawn had met with Manfred on Dec. 17.
Manfred's decision would allow everyone on the 1919 White Sox to be considered for the Hall
Jackson's involvement in the 'Black Sox' scandal has been long debated - even after his death in 1951 - and he long maintained his innocence. He's now considered a cult hero in US sports.
Rose, meanwhile, is considered one of the greatest hitters in the history of baseball
A 17-time All-Star during a playing career from 1963-86, Rose holds record for hits (4,256), games (3,562), at-bats (14,053), plate appearances (15,890) and singles (3,215). He was the 1963 NL Rookie of the Year, 1973 MVP and 1975 World Series MVP. A three-time NL batting champion, he broke the prior hits record of 4,191 set by Ty Cobb from 1905-28.
Jackson was a .356 career hitter who was among the eight Black Sox banned for throwing the 1919 World Series.
Up until his death in 1951, Jackson maintained his innocence and became a cult hero in American sporting mythology. He remains one of the sport's most recognizable names in part for his depiction by Ray Liotta in the movie Field of Dreams.
Under a rule adopted by the Hall's board of directors in 1991, anyone on the permanently ineligible list can't be considered for election to the Hall.
Jackson was twice considered on ballots by the Baseball Writers' Association of America, but received just 0.9% in 1936 and 1% of a nominating vote in 1940.
Rose's reinstatement occurred too late for him to be considered for the BBWAA ballot. If not on the permanently banned list, Rose would have been eligible on the ballots each from 1992 through 2006. He was written in on 41 votes in 1992 and on 243 of 7,232 ballots (3.4%) over the 15 years, votes that were not counted.
Hall of Fame Chairman of the Board Jane Forbes Clark said in a statement that players affected by Manfred's ruling Tuesday would be considered.
'The National Baseball Hall of Fame has always maintained that anyone removed from Baseball´s permanently ineligible list will become eligible for Hall of Fame consideration,' she said. 'Major League Baseball's decision to remove deceased individuals from the permanently ineligible list will allow for the Hall of Fame candidacy of such individuals to now be considered.'
Unlike Jackson, Rose was never put on the ballots of BBWAA voters after his ban
Without the ban, both players are eligible for the Hall's Classic Baseball Era, which next meets to consider players in December 2027 and considers those whose greatest contributions to the sport were before 1980.
A 10-person historical overview committee selects the eight ballot candidates with the approval of the Hall's board and the ballot is considered by 16 members at the winter meetings, with a 75% or higher vote needed. The committee members include Hall of Fame members, team executives and media/historians.
Among the players in the 2028 class eligible for the BBWAA ballot are Albert Pujols and Yadier Molina.
Rose's supporters have included U.S. President Donald Trump, who has said he intends to pardon Rose posthumously. Manfred discussed Rose with Trump when the pair met in April, but he hasn´t disclosed specifics of their conversation.
It's not clear what a presidential pardon for Rose would entail. Rose entered guilty pleas on April 20, 1990, to two counts of filing false tax returns, admitting he failed to report $354,968 during a four-year period.
Rose was sentenced on July 19, 1990, by U.S. District Judge S. Arthur Spiegel in Cincinnati to five months in prison. He also was fined $50,000 and ordered to perform 1,000 hours of community service as a gym teacher's assistant with inner-city youths in Cincinnati as part of a one-year probation period.
The first three months of the probation were to be spent at the halfway house. Rose repaid the Internal Revenue Service $366,042.
