One man has died after a knife attack early on Tuesday at a train station in the Munich area in southern Germany, German broadcaster ARD reported.
Police were checking witness statements that the man shouted "Allahu Akbar" (God is Great) during the attack, Bayerischer Rundfunk reported.
German media said police had arrested the perpetrator and that the victims were men. Police were not immediately reachable for comment when contacted by Reuters.
Germany, which is playing a supporting role in the fight against Daesh, has not suffered a major attack by Daesh the like of which neighbouring France and Belgium have experienced.
