Rosenheim, Germany·
DoseFix EditorialMulti-source synthesis

A British woman has died after being stabbed at a railway station in Rosenheim, Bavaria, Germany, in the early hours of Sunday morning. The 31-year-old woman was attacked shortly before 01:00 local time and later died in hospital from severe injuries. Police arrested a 27-year-old German man at the scene immediately after the incident. The background and motive for the attack are under investigation. Police have appealed for witnesses to an argument or physical altercation at the station. The suspect, from the Fürstenfeldbruck district, was to be brought before magistrates later on Sunday. It is unclear whether the two knew each other or what the woman was doing in Bavaria. Rosenheim is a busy rail hub for passengers traveling to Austrian cities. The Rosenheimer Herbstfest, a beer festival, is currently taking place in the area, but the mayor said there are no indications of a security threat or link to the festival. The UK Foreign Office is supporting the family.
