Video has emerged from a car-mounted dashcam appearing to show the moment a truck drove into the Berlin Christmas market on Monday in an attack that killed 12 people.
The video, obtained by Reuters, was taken by a taxi driver who was waiting for customers just outside the Christmas market at the Kaiser Wilhelm memorial church.
In the video, the truck is seen speeding from left to right into Breitscheidplatz, where the Christmas market is at the foot of the church. People come running out from the direction of the market shortly after the truck speeds into the square.
The video's release came as it was claimed that Anis Amri, the suspect in the attacks, was overheard by German intelligence offering to carry out a “suicide attack” several months ago.
But despite the alarming nature of the offer the order was not given to arrest Amri and investigators wrote him off as an “errand boy”.
