In Neustadt am Rübenberge, Lower Saxony, a BMW intentionally rammed a group of people on Monday night. Four or five individuals were seriously injured, but their lives are not in danger. A police patrol, witnessing the incident around 11:30 PM local time, opened fire on the vehicle to stop it, as reported by Deutsche Welle.

Preliminary investigations suggest the ramming was an act of violence between organized criminal gangs. It is believed that those involved knew each other and the attack was targeted. Three people were detained at the BMW owner's residence. Authorities have ruled out dangers to public safety.

The exact sequence of events and specific roles remain under investigation. Several suspects fled the scene on foot. A detailed forensic analysis of the scene and vehicles is underway to gather evidence and reconstruct the dynamics of the incident.

A reporter from the German news agency DPA described several damaged cars: flat tires, a shattered rear window, and bullet holes, highlighting the violence. Law enforcement continues searches to identify and bring to justice all those responsible for the serious incident.
