They said more than one person may have got out of the vehicle after it came to a halt close to the city\u2019s Brandenburg Gate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Three of the 16 people who were injured in the attack were in a life-threatening condition, and some of the injuries included stab wounds, police and emergency services said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Organisers of the annual Christopher Street Day celebrations, Berlin\u2019s annual LGBTQ Pride, cancelled the remainder of the events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Suspected perpetrator<br>Police described the wanted man as slim, around 1.90 metres tall, with black hair, and last seen wearing a black hooded top and white trousers.
