Chief Station Reporter Li Changhao: This is a main street in the center of Trier. We can see that the festive atmosphere decorates the whole street. The vehicle that caused the accident here rushed along the Z-shaped deliberately into the crowd, leading to the tragedy.

Trier is a scenic border town, and the security environment has always been very good. When it comes to the attack on the first day, the residents of the town are still scared.

Local people: I came to the scene about five minutes after the incident. I wanted to go downtown, but the surroundings were in chaos, and I was stopped by the police. I’m French and have settled here ten years ago. The people here are very friendly and always smile. Everyone is welcome here, no matter where your cultural background comes from, and I see no one smiles in my eyes today with tears. We thought about it. We lost five smiling faces. Thinking about those who were injured, I was very sad.

Local people: The most serious one is that a baby who is only nine and a half weeks old has also lost his life, and his father is really a tragedy.

After the incident, many local people held candles in their arms and prayed silently in the cold wind to express their sorrow.

Local people: I’m here today because I feel very sad, because it is unusual for Trier. I feel heavy.
