A driver drove a car into a union demonstration in central Munich on Thursday, injuring at least 28 people including children, authorities said. Bavarian governor Markus Söder said the incident was “suspected to be an attack.

Bavaria's state criminal police office said the young girl and her mother, a 37-year-old woman from Munich, died of their injuries, the German news agency dpa reported.

Opposing protests took place in the southern German city of Munich on Sunday following a deadly car-ramming attack that killed two people and rekindled a debate on deportations just days before a nationwide election.
