On Thursday morning, a 31-year-old man attacked three people with a knife at the train station in Winterthur, near Zurich, according to the announcement from the cantonal police. The victims, who are Swiss citizens, are aged 28, 43, and 52, and one of them suffered serious injuries and was urgently transported to the hospital. The attacker was apprehended by law enforcement, who are investigating the motives behind the attack.

Witnesses reported that the man shouted 'Allah Akbar' during the assault, which took place in three different locations within the station.
