The killer was named as Nordine Amrani, 33, a known criminal and gun-lover who
launched his rampage for reasons that police were still trying to fathom.
They stressed that Amrani had no known links to terrorism or any history of
mental illness or violent crime, but it did emerge that he was released on
parole last year from a 58-month sentence for possessing a cache of weapons
and 2,800 cannabis plants.
His victims were two teenage boys aged 15 and 17, a man aged 20 and a
75-year-old woman. A 17-month-old girl later died of her wounds in hospital.
The city's mayor said the teenagers were celebrating finishing their exams
and were heading to the Christmas market when they were killed. Around 120
were injured.
