On a Wednesday afternoon in western Berlin, a car struck a crowd of pedestrians near the Brandenburg Gate, killing one person and injuring approximately thirty others. The driver was detained at the scene as investigators began the slow, careful work of distinguishing accident from intent. The location bore its own silent testimony — the same stretch of city where, six years ago, a deliberate truck attack claimed twelve lives — reminding a city, and a watching world, how quickly ordinary public life can be shattered, and how long the memory of such shattering endures.
