A MUM and her child have died in hospital after a suspected Islamist terrorist rammed his Mini Cooper into a crowd in Munich.

The woman, 37, and her two-year-old daughter were among 39 injured in the “shocking attack” said to be carried out by a rejected Afghan asylum seeker.

The Mini Cooper is said to have “sped up” and ploughed into the back of around 1,500 Verdi demonstrators – a Berlin-based German trade union – on Seidlstrasse in Munich on Thursday.

The suspected attack came just hours before the Munich Security Conference started on Friday, with US Vice President JD Vance and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky arriving at the summit to speak.

The suspect is a 24-year-old Afghan asylum seeker who is understood to have been known to police in relation to drug and theft incidents.

News website Spiegel says the suspect is a Kabul-born man named Farhad Noori.

He is said to have posted Islamist content on social media before the heinous incident.

The suspected attack is thought not to be connected with the Munich Security Conference.

Farhad Noori arrived in Germany as an asylum seeker in December 2016 and had his asylum application rejected.

Unconfirmed reports from eyewitnesses in the horror incident claim there were two men involved in the crowd plough, with one of them shot by police and carried away, according to BR24.

Munich cops have repeated that the driver was arrested but said they’re unable to confirm reports that another person was involved.

One eyewitness on the scene said the Mini hit a woman and child, explaining that they were “apparently lying under the car”.

A demonstrator told Bayerischer Rundfunk: “I was in the demonstration and saw that a man was lying under the car.

“Then I tried to open the door, but it was locked.”

They claimed police shot at the car window.

The front of the Mini was completely destroyed – suggesting the driver was travelling at speed before ploughing into demonstrators.
