A woman died after a car ploughed into a group of people in the centre of Stuttgart. Another 7 people were seriously injured. Police said it was a tragic accident and ruled out the possibility of a terrorist attack, BR24 reported. 

The 46-year-old woman succumbed to her injuries, police and prosecutors said.

The driver has been arrested and questioned. The seriously injured were taken to hospitals in Stuttgart. Those with minor injuries were assisted in a fire brigade vehicle and gradually released. | BGNES
