Read our privacy policy Police arrested a 32-year-old woman after six people were hurt in a knife attack on a bus headed to a festival in western Germany. The bus was on its way to a local festival in the town and at least another 40 people were on board when the attack took place at about 7:40 p.m. Police and prosecutors said the six people wounded were aged between 16 and 30 and all were from the region. The stabbing in Siegen happened a week after a knife attack in Solingen, a city in the same state of North Rhine-Westphalia, in which a suspected Islamic extremist from Syria who had avoided being deported is accused of killing three people and wounding another eight.
