German police are working on the assumption that machete attack was a crime of passion.
German police are working on the assumption that Sunday's machete attack by a Syrian asylum-seeker that left one woman dead and two people injured in the city of Reutlingen was a "crime of passion", DPA news agency reported.
"When a man and woman have an argument, we assume that we are dealing with a crime of passion," a local police spokesman told DPA, after media reported that the attacker and the murdered woman were close and worked in the same snack bar.
