Berlin, December 22 (RHC)-- In Germany, police are carrying out a manhunt after 12 people were killed and 48 more wounded in Berlin after a truck drove into a Christmas market around 8 p.m. local time Monday.  Police say they are now searching for a Tunisian man whose ID papers were found inside the truck used in the attack. 

On Tuesday, police released a Pakistani asylum seeker whom they had initially arrested as a suspect, after they could find no evidence linking him to the attack.  Berlin residents packed into a church Tuesday afternoon near the Christmas market to mourn the victims.  ISIS has claimed responsibility for the attack.
