In Germany, officials say a Syrian man who blew himself up outside a concert Sunday night had declared allegiance to ISIS. The 27-year-old man was killed and about a dozen people were wounded in the blast. Police say they found bomb-making materials in the man’s apartment, along with a video of the man pledging support to the group. Police described the alleged bomber as having legal and psychiatric troubles. They said he had arrived in Germany two years ago, but had been denied asylum.
