One person was hit by the car.
The homicide squad is now investigating an alleged attempted homicide and is looking for the unknown driver.
According to previous investigations, the person who was hit by the car was thrown into the air, several others jumped aside in time, the police and prosecutor announced on Saturday.
The driver is said to have approached the group of about 30 people slowly at first.
Then he accelerated his car and drove towards about five people.
When the police arrived, there was a slightly injured 19-year-old on site.
It was said, however, that it was still unclear whether he was hit.
The police and the public prosecutor's office did not rule out a “milieu act”.
