Three people were seriously injured in a knife attack on an express train between the southern German cities of Regensburg and Nuremberg on Saturday, police said.

A 27-year-old man of Syrian nationality had been taken into custody in relation to the incident, according to authorities.

“The background or motive for what happened today is still completely unclear. But our investigations are currently being conducted on suspicion of one or more attempted homicides," Oberpfalz police spokesperson Florian Beck said.

Officials said the attack happened in the district of Neumarkt and the train was stationary at Seubersdorf southeast of Regensburg. A Red Cross spokesperson said between 200 and 300 people were removed from the train and were being taken care of at a nearby location.
