An explosion in the German city of Ansbach, near Nuremberg, has killed a suspected bomber and injured 10 other people.

Police said a man “according to our current knowledge the perpetrator” died in the blast late Sunday.

It was the fourth violent incident in Germany in a week, and came as the country is still on edge after the killing of nine people by an 18-year-old Iranian-German gunman in Munich on Friday.

The blast in the town of Ansbach prompted the evacuation of more than 2,000 people from a nearby music festival, police said.

“We assume it was a deliberate explosion,” a Bavarian Interior Ministry spokesman said.

Police offered no immediate details on the individual killed or those injured.
