Man arrested after chainsaw attack

Swiss police said yesterday that they had arrested a man suspected of attacking five people in a chainsaw ram page. Franz Wrousis, 50, was arrested in Thalwil, a town about 37 miles from Schaffhausen, the town near the German border where the incident took place.

He is alleged to have walked into a health insurance office wielding the chainsaw on Monday. The search for the suspect involved an international manhunt, with more than 100 Swiss and German officers taking part.
