A van drove into a crowd near Berlin's Tiergarten park, killing one person and injuring 17 others, some critically.
Authorities identified an Islamist extremist as the prime suspect, who remained at large hours after the attack.
The vehicle was found empty after striking a tree, prompting an intensive manhunt for the perpetrator or perpetrators.
Hundreds of thousands had gathered for one of Berlin's largest annual festivals, celebrating equality and inclusion, before celebrations were abruptly halted.
