POLICE yesterday gunned down a knifeman who ran amok at a far-right demonstration being streamed live on YouTube.
Shocking footage showed the bearded attacker stabbing an officer in the neck as he knelt over one of the injured.
His colleagues were heard screaming: "Throw the knife away!" But when he failed to drop the hunting blade, the knifeman was shot at point-blank range.
Activist Michael Stuerzenberger, 59, was stabbed in the face as the man ran amok at the rally for the far-right Citizens' Movement Pax Europa (BPE), in Mannheim, southern Germany.
The campaign group, formed in 2008, speaks out against what it calls the "Islamisation" of Europe and opposes the building of new mosques.
