Anti-Islam activist stabbed in Germany

Anti-Islam activist Michael Stürzenberger has been injured Friday in a knife attack in the German city of Mannheim.

Police said the assailant wounded multiple people before being shot by responding officers, according to The Associated Press.

The attack was captured on camera by the Buergerbewegung Pax Europa group. One of those injured was Michael Stürzenberger, described by Euronews as a German far-right activist and anti-Islam critic who is a member of the organization.

Buergerbewegung Pax Europa has vocally opposed Islam and Muslims in Germany, including pushing for a ban on mosques, Euronews adds.
