The source I just quoted was not CNN, nor did it say it got their information from CNN.
The previous quote said that a woman told CNN, but that might be the only witness that CNN directly was in contact with. This does not mean that there were not other witnesses.
Did you see when I said that the German police tried to cover up the mass raping in Cologne?
As the crowd swelled and grew more unruly, Ms. Duncan said, a stranger came up and asked if she needed help. Both of them spoke broken German, so the stranger summoned a friend who spoke English. He was Hesham Ahmad Mohammad, from Aleppo, Syria, who had met up in Cologne for the holiday with six or seven other Syrian refugees scattered around Germany.
The men offered Ms. Duncan money for a taxi to her boyfriend’s parents’ home: “the only address I knew,” she said. They would happily have called her boyfriend, Sebastian Samer, but Ms. Duncan had relied on speed-dial and could not remember the number. “I know there’s a lot of 7s,” she thought, “but that’s not helping me right now.”
Military and security budgets have to rise infinitely, it's all part of the agenda. And as long as those IS-assholes claim all attacks to be their brainchilds, our gullible armchair-defenders of western civilisation will follow that narrative willingly. Who on Ceres cares about facts anyway...
This 'rapid radicalisation' will continue until we end this War with Terror and review 9/11, just a pretty straightforward usage of logics. One our new normal of Idiocracy tends to ignore completely, of course.
He had no qualifications after failing at school and complained that he had been bullied by 'Turkish and Arabic' classmates.
Reams of papers found in his apartment revealed that he 'admired' German killer Tim Kretschmer, 17, who killed 15 people at a school in Winnenden, southern Germany, in 2009.
There were also reams of paper in his room on the Erfurt massacre in April 2002, when 19-year-old Robert Steinhauser took revenge on his school teacher and former classmates. He killed 13 teachers, two pupils and a policeman before committing suicide.

The Munich attacker was an 18-year-old student who was born and raised in the city, Munich Police Chief Hubertus Andrae said at a press conference Saturday. He said the gunman was "not connected with refugees at all." The gunman had received medical treatment for mental issues, a police official said, and investigators are still looking into his mental condition.
He was German. Born and Raised.

"Even if he did scream allah ackbar, after reading your source it becomes very clear that his faith, if he was Muslim, had nothing to do with this."
The pretzel twisty, turny logic you stated there is stunning.
His "faith" had EVERYTHING to do with his hateful actions.
His "faith" tells him "kill the infidel" go to heaven (with 72 virgins).
8 infidels gone; 20 plus injured. The German government scrambles to cover and clean up electronic trail (hey! Let's call him David!!! That'll help...)
They'll be candles, vigils, the obligatory teddy bears. Twits and Facebook denizens will done the German flag colors to tint their avitars.
Rinse lather repeat when the NEXT "poor misunderstood follower of the religion that must not be criticized" acts up again.
When is enough enough?
Police commandos, armed with night vision equipment and dogs, raided an apartment in the Munich neighbourhood of Maxvorstadt early on Saturday, where a neighbour told Reuters the gunman had lived with his parents for about four years.
In the killer's room, police found a German translation of a book entitled "Why Kids Kill - Inside the Minds of School Shooters". Asked if the gunman had deliberately targeted young people, Munich police chief Andrae said that theory could be neither confirmed or ruled out.

There's an interesting lead police re following that the shooter had converted to Christianity. We'll see what comes of that. My guess is nothing, but you never know.

These frightened, low-bar posters seem to just want to jump in with their (fairly often even if right pretty extreme and hate-filled) assumptions on a subject so that if it is proven they can then yell, "A ha!" Yet if disproved, they then most often scream, "Coverup!" or less often, slink away. Very aberrant behavior. but at least somewhat fascinating to observe.

Munich gunman fixated on mass killing, had no Islamist ties

In addition to his apparent obsession, and this has probably been mentioned, this shooting took place on the fifth anniversary of twin attacks by Norwegian mass murderer Anders Breivik.
