(Patria) - A two-year-old girl and her mother have died after a car crashed into a crowd of people in Munich on Thursday.

The 37-year-old mother from Munich and her daughter are the first victims of the incident. At least 36 people were injured in the attack on Thursday morning.

The suspect, a 24-year-old Afghan national, was apprehended at the scene. Farhad N has lived in Munich since arriving as an unaccompanied minor in 2016 and has no prior convictions.

Prosecutors have confirmed he is under investigation on 36 counts of attempted murder, as well as grievous bodily harm and dangerous obstruction of road traffic. They said he appeared to have an extremist motive, although there is no evidence he is linked to any radical network, Sky news reports.
