                 Man With Ax Attacks Passengers on German Train

   by Reuters

   A man with an ax attacked passengers on a train in the southern German
   state of Bavaria late on Monday and several people were critically
   wounded, a police spokesman said.

   The spokesman said the attack happened on a local train near the city
   of Wuerzburg. He could not confirm media reports that the attacker had
   been shot dead and said the police operation was still ongoing.

   The rail line between Würzburg-Heidingsfeld and Ochsenfurt has been
   closed, the police spokesman said.

   There was no indication of the motive for the attack.

   This is a developing story with details still coming in.
