Taleb Al Abdulmohsen Identified As Christmas Mart Attacker

One officer was seen aiming his gun at the suspect — identified as a Saudi doctor named Taleb al-Abdulmohsen – and shouting commands as the unarmed driver crouched behind his wrecked BMW amid the carnage in Magdeburg.

The two exchanged words before al-Abdulmohsen laid face down on the street, putting his hands behind his back, according to the 50-second clip obtained by the AP.

The video was captured at an intersection from inside a car just inches away from the damaged vehicle that al-Abdulmohsen is suspected of driving through the Christmas market blocks away.

One bystander helped the lone officer when he flagged down a pair of emergency vehicles racing down the street.

Officers jumped out of the van and hopped a railing dividing the road lanes as a dozen other cops rushed the scene to detain the suspected attacker.

Al-Abdulmohsen – identified from a report by The Guardian – had fled to Germany as a Saudi Arabian refugee in 2006 and gained official refugee status in 2016.

The 50-year-old left his home country due to its Islamic government and settled in Bernburg, roughly 28 miles southeast of Magdeburg.

He has worked in the German city as a doctor and psychotherapist since receiving his permanent status, according to the Wall Street Journal.
