Deadly Leipzig car attack suspect goes on trial

The trial of Jeffrey K., 34, began on Monday over a May car attack in Leipzig's historic centre that killed a 63-year-old woman and a 77-year-old man; he faces two counts of murder and 85 counts of attempted murder. Prosecutors say he planned the attack to harm as many people as possible, while the defence cites a hopeless situation and a custody dispute.
