Report: Man kills woman with machete in Germany, is arrested

A man with a machete killed a woman and injured two other people on Sunday in the southwestern city of Reutlingen before he was arrested by police, German media reported.

Bild and the Sueddeutsche Zeitung newspapers both reported that the reason for the attack in the city south of Stuttgart was unclear.

Reutlingen police could not immediately be reached.

The attack comes with Germany on edge following a rampage at a Munich mall on Friday night in which nine people were killed, and an ax attack on a train a week ago that left five wounded.
