An African migrant has been arrested on murder charges in Germany after allegedly pushing a mother and her 8-year-old from a station platform in front of a moving train, killing the child in the process, according to reports.
The incident took place around 10 am on Monday morning at Frankfurt’s central railway station.
Horrified witnesses allegedly saw the African randomly target the woman and her son, pushing them off platform 7 in front of an InterCity Express train, according to German tabloid Bild.
The attacker reportedly attempted to throw a third victim onto the tracks but was unsuccessful.
The boy’s mother managed to save herself by rolling into a narrow gap between tracks but lost hold of her son who was fatally hit by the oncoming train.
