The polish lorry was hijacked when it arrived in Berlin and hours later was driven through Christmas market crowds. The main suspect was pursued on foot and arrested - but it appears he is the wrong man.

New photographs have emerged from the scene showing how the road around the lorry was strewn with bodies, including a body by the cab.

The vehicle mounted the pavement before tearing through stalls and shoppers in the market on Breitscheidplatz Square, outside the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church in the German capital's main shopping area.

The truck company's tracker system says that it was started and stopped repeatedly after the hijacking, suggesting the driver was learning how to drive it.

The vehicle left a trail of devastation in its wake, in a chilling echo of the deadly terror attack in the French city of Nice in July - and comes just one hour after the Russian ambassador was shot dead in Ankara.

This is a clear view of the path the lorry took through the now-destroyed Christmas market in central Berlin.
![Page 27: Terror in Berlin](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062503/587007381a28ab427f8b6609/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
At least 12 were killed and another 48 injured when a 25-ton hijacked truck ploughed through the busy festive market on Breitscheidplatz Square.

This is the path taken by the killer truck driver - and shows how it mounted a narrow strip of pavement around 80metres in length with the aim of killing as many people as possible.
![Page 29: Terror in Berlin](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062503/587007381a28ab427f8b6609/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

Inside the cab was the Polish driver who the lorry was hijacked from - he may have been murdered before the crash.
![Page 31: Terror in Berlin](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062503/587007381a28ab427f8b6609/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
