UPDATED - Germany: Six Inured as Car Ploughs Into Nightclub Crowd

Six people were injured, four seriously, Sunday morning after a car was reportedly deliberately driven into a crowd of people leaving a nightclub in the German town of Cuxhaven. 
A police statement from the local force said officers were alerted to the incident at 0730 Sunday morning after a 29-year old man drove his car at speed into a group of people, leaving six people hospitalised — and four with serious injuries. 
Police said the incident appeared to have been deliberate, and that the driver was under the influence of alcohol, but there was not yet any clear indication that the incident is related to terrorism. 
After hitting into the people outside the nightclub, the driver attempted to flee the scene but crashed his car into a stone block set in the pavement. 
No details on the driver, who remains in custody, or victims have been released.
Of course not.

UPDATE 

A German resident of Syrian origin rammed some people today. Gary Fouse was kind enough to translate some of the content to German. We hope to have a more full translation soon.
The police spokesman says the incident happened in the early morning of Sunday. The driver is of Syrian origin but described asa “Cuxhavener” (resident). They believe the incident was deliberate. Six are injured 4 seriously in hospital;. The driver is in custody and the car being examined. It may be connected to a fight in a local disco.
This article says it was deliberate but not terrorism. Which they more and more often do when its terrorism.
