A candidate in local elections for the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) was attacked with a knife in Mannheim, a few days after a stabbing at an anti-Islam rally in that city, the party said Wednesday.

The leader of the regional branch of the AfD told AFP the candidate was attacked after confronting a person trying to remove an election poster on Tuesday. Police declined to confirm or deny the incident.
