BERLIN ATTACK SUSPECT KILLED BY ITALIAN POLICE|柏林恐攻突籍主嫌 在義大利被警擊斃

Italian police shot dead the man believed to be responsible for this week's Berlin Christmas market truck attack, killing him after he pulled a gun on them during a routine check in the early hours of Friday. A police chief said his men had no idea they might be dealing with 24-year-old Tunisian Anis Amri when they approached him after he had arrived in Milan's main rail station from France at around 1 a.m because he looked suspicious. He failed to produce any I.D. so the police requested that he empty his pockets and his small backpack. He pulled a loaded gun from his bag and shot at one of the men, lightly wounding him in the shoulder. Amri is suspected of driving a truck that smashed through a Berlin market on Monday (December 19) killing 12 people, as security forces across Europe have been trying to track him down. Amri was identified by his fingerprints. TRANSLATED BY：MELVIN TAN
