According to testimonies on social networks some citizens confronted the attacker to prevent him from stabbing more people before the police arrived. Police eventually shot the man in the leg and then arrested him.

Some videos show the alleged attacker barefoot and with a long knife and how some people try to stop him by throwing chairs and other objects at him.
