On 25 June 2021, a mass stabbing took place at a Woolworth store in Würzburg, Bavaria, Germany. Three women were killed and eight others were injured before the perpetrator, 31-year-old Abdirahman Jibril Ali, was cornered by armed bystanders and arrested by police after being shot in the leg. Jibril Ali, originally from Somalia, had a history of several violent altercations since his 2015 arrival as an asylum seeker in Germany and several involuntary commitments before the attack. Islamist motives were initially suspected due to statements made by Jibril Ali during the attack, but later discarded due to a lack of reliable evidence. In 2022, the perpetrator was found not criminally responsible due to paranoid schizophrenia and sentenced to indefinite psychiatric commitment.
