The case is
likely to deepen worries about so-called “lone wolf” attacks in Europe
and could put political pressure on German Chancellor Angela Merkel, who

Bavarian state Interior
Minister Joachim Herrmann said it was still too early to say whether the
Afghan youth was a member of Islamic State, which has claimed
responsibility for the French attack, or any other militant group.
Two
of those injured in the attacks were in a critical condition and
several of the injured included members of a Chinese family, he added,
without giving any further details.
