Germans have mourned the victims of an apparent attack in which authorities say a doctor drove into a busy outdoor Christmas market, killing five people and injuring 200 others.

The alleged attack on Friday evening in Magdeburg, about 80 miles west of Berlin, killed a nine-year-old and four adults and injured 41 people badly enough that authorities warned the death toll could rise.
