Mourners in Germany have paid tribute to the victims of a car-ramming attack, which killed five people in the central city of Magdeburg on Friday.

A nine-year-old child was among the victims, after a man drove his car into crowds at a Christmas market.

Around 200 people were injured.

Prosecutors say the suspect is a 50-year-old Saudi doctor who has lived in Germany since 2006.

An investigation on suspicion of murder and

attempted murder is underway.

Al Jazeera's Dominic Kane reports from Magdeburg, Germany.
